“Not sure if you've noticed but you've got a new customer….. My neighbour pops 'round for a cup of tea from time to time and the other day he said, "This tea is fantastic, where do you get it from?"
So there you go, tea which is so good it sells itself without any need for jingles.” - we thank you James, and encouraged you share with neighbours

The cool, slow ripening conditions of our Ceylon Organic high grown tea, create the renowned quality of this region. This is a Broken Orange Pekoe (BOP), with a well twisted curly leaf. Packed in handwoven baskets from a community development project using women’s traditional weaving skills. Store in a cool, dry place.
Producer Information
Idulgashinna Organic Bio Tea Estate – In 1987 this became the first certified organic tea garden in the world.
The social development program at Idulgashinna continues to involve workers in all aspects of the management of the estate. This is raising the standard of living and improving education and health care. It is a radical departure from conditions on most tea estates, where there is a big gap between the management and workers, and where workers live in very basic conditions with poor access to education and health care.
“We are now living in healthy houses with a healthy environment”
