Taste, Goodness & Purpose Our Founder’s dream was to offer his tea, grown and packed at source, direct to the world. After nearly four decades spent in overcoming the obstacles he faced as he sought to offer the first genuinely ethical tea brand, he succeeded in 1988 and his earnings fulfill his pledge to making Dilmah a business that is a matter of human service.

Taste Deliciously authentic, honouring the influence of Nature in our Single Origin Teas and handpicked ingredients. We are tea growers, and our commitment is to great taste with tea that is garden fresh, single origin and of the finest quality.

Goodness Tea that is grown, handpicked and handmade, and infusions from ingredients that are authentic, all freshly packed at source, to ensure that natural antioxidant goodness is nurtured and protected for your enjoyment.

Purpose Formed around our Founder’s sincere wish to make business a matter of human service, earnings from Dilmah Tea are shared with less privileged people and the environment.

Our Teamaker’s Atelier Sunshine, wind, rain and soil in our tea gardens

Fresh from Ceylon’s Tea Gardens. Interspersed with waterfalls, rising mountain tops and natural beauty that the island formerly known as Serendib is bestowed with, rises the heart of Sri Lanka’s tea country. Cultivated over centuries, these gardens gave the island (then Ceylon), its firm place in the hearts of tea drinkers around the world for that delicious brew unmatched in taste and variety – Ceylon Tea.

HISTORY OF TEA





CATEGORIES OF TEA


ONE PLANTMANY TEAS


VARIETY IN TEA The diversity in tea is elegantly expressed visually, in the leaf, infusion of the brewed leaf and the brewed liquor, continuing through the fragrance of the tea both leaf and liquor and finally in the flavour, texture and strength of each tea.


The Story of Tea


The story behind your cup of tea


Tea (Camellia sinensis) Manufacturing Chart


It’s not size that really matters … The CTC method of tea manufacture, sacrificed the soul of tea, compromising the beauty of terroir for a cut, crush, tear and curl method of manufacture


How to Brew a Perfect Cup Of Tea

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY FRESHNESS TASTE ANTIOXIDANTS


RULE 1

Choosing Good Tea Needs Care Tea made in the traditional, artisanal way – called the orthodox method – retains the sophistication that natural soil, and climatic factors induce. Tea packed at source, retaining its freshness and in particular tea that maintains the purity of its origin – single origin, single region or single estate tea – is best.


RULE 2

Protect Your Tea Protect your tea in an airtight container, and keep it away from moisture, heat, light and odours. Stored in a cool and dry place never warmer than 30 degrees centigrade.

RULE 3

PH l eve of 7 l

Water A cup of tea is 99% water and good water is as important for a good brew as the tea itself. Water that contains high levels of minerals, especially calcium, or magnesium (hard water), water that is chlorinated, briny or desalinated sea water or has been boiled several times is not good enough for brewing tea in.


RULE 4

Boiling Water Reboiling water is not good at any time as it can deplete dissolved gases and concentrate nitrates, fluoride and other undesirable elements, and for tea that is especially bad


RULE 6

Water Temperature and Brewing Times


RULE 7

Stirring

Once the tea and freshly boiled water are combined, the leaves tend to settle at the bottom of the teapot, reducing the contact between tea leaves and water

Stir to agitate the tea and allow proper extraction. Stirring (by spoon or dipping tea bag several times) increases the Antioxidant content extracted into the cup


RULE 8

Right Temperature to Consume The best temperature at which hot tea should be drunk is around 65 degrees centigrade although that can vary.

RULE 9

Adding Enhancements Milk should only be added to a strong brewed black tea. Use warm milk only as cold milk will rapidly cool down the tea, as tea should be always enjoyed hot.


RULE 9

Adding Enhancements

We recommend using bees honey, if you are using sugar use white and not brown


RULE 9

Adding Enhancements Respect the taste profile of the tea: The tea Should withstand the enhancements without compromising the taste.


RULE 10

Know when to break the Rules

Over brew the tea into an essence. When mixing tea cocktails or cooking with tea, over brew the tea into an essence Tea taste, texture or fragrance of the tea must be evident in the food or drink.


RULE 10

Know when to break the Rules

Special brewing for iced tea, cocktails and punches. Strong Black Tea - 5 minutes


RULE 10

Know when to break the Rules

Special brewing for cold brewed tea. Brew overnight in the refrigerator
