Sri Lanka is now one of the world’s leading tea planters and exporters. Ceylon Tea is classified as Low Grown, Mid Grown, or High Grown according to how far a tea plant is grown from the ground. WINSLAND TEA (PVT) LIMITED’s tea zones are named considering the country’s geographical regions as Dimbula, Kandy, Nuwara Eliya, Ruhuna, Uda Pussellawa and Uva.
NUWARA ELIYA
Gracefully Scented
The district’s name comes from the town, which is located on a plateau at 1,868 meters (6,128 feet) above sea level, beneath the silhouette of Sri Lanka’s tallest mountain, ‘Pidurutalagala.’ The eastern and western seasons are both of exceptional quality at Nuwara Eliya. The infused leaf takes on a greenish-yellow hue after withering, and the brewed infusion is the palest of all the Ceylon Tea kinds. It has a light golden scent that is delicately sweet.
UDA PUSSELLAWA
Delicately Tangy
Lodged between the Kandy and Uva regions on the eastern slopes of the hill country, Uda Pussellawa tea is occasionally compared in character with that of Nuwara Eliya. It appears somewhat darker when brewed, with a pinkish hue and gives out a flavor of great strength. The eastern season which begins in June and ends in September produces the best tea of the year, very closely followed by the western season during the first quarter. During the periods of heavy rainfall, the tea which is produced is of a much darker shade when brewed and is exceptionally strong in flavor. During periods of high rainfall, the tea produced has a much darker color when brewed and has an extremely strong flavor.
DIMBULA
Refreshingly Mellow
Dimbula tea are classified as ‘high-grown,’ with an elevation of over 1,250m according to the regional standard (4,000ft.). Dimbula tea, like all high-grown tea, grow slowly and with little leaves. Dimbula planters are more concerned with flavor rather than the leaf style of their products. The region’s diverse geography creates a wide range of positive micro climates, which reflect flavor variances. Dimbula tea is with a lovely golden-orange hue in the cup and gives a unique freshness to the flavor that leaves a clean feeling in the mouth after drinking. The greater the brightness and freshness of the tea in the cup, the higher the height at which it was picked.
UVA
Exotically Fragrant
The tea grown in the Uva region has a particular flavor and is typically blended. 3,000 to 5,000 feet above sea level is where this tea is planted. The plantations of Bandarawela, Badulla, and Haputale produce this variety As per the experts, the environment in the area is the main reason for the tea’s distinct flavor. Winds from two monsoons, the northeast and southwest, batter the region. The region’s weather seems mostly dry, especially during the ‘quality season’.
KANDY
Intense and Rich
Kandy is a promising district in Sri Lanka’s Central Province, with its capital situated in a low-lying valley. The estates of Nilambe, Hantane, Pussellawa, Gampola, and Hewaheta are located among the surrounding hills. These mountains in the Kandy region are not as high as the ones in the south of the central province, the tea is described as ‘mid-grown’. Plantation takes place between 650 and 1,300 meters above the sea level ranges which is approximately 2,000-4,000ft.
RUHUNA
Distinctly Exclusive
The tea grown in the Ruhuna region is classified as “low-grown” or “low country.” The region’s tea estates are located about 600 meters (2,000 feet) above sea level. Even though the main tea-growing regions are close to the shore, the typical weather patterns prevent the crop from suffering the full brunt of the southwest monsoon winds and rain. This zone of temperate climate, watered by several minor rivers, was devoted to the cultivation of spices before ‘tea’ was introduced. The region’s soil, combined with the estate’s low height, leads the tea bush to develop quickly, yielding a long, elegant leaf that turns extremely black when withered and is ideal for rolling.
