About Dilmah Tea

"Now available to mainstream U.S. consumers, Dilmah Tea’s selection of the world’s finest single-origin, 100% pure Ceylon teas provides superior quality, freshness and taste. Discerning tea drinkers will notice the distinct difference in the first sip as this isn’t the multi-origin blend you get from other teas in stores. Fresh tea makes a difference and Dilmah Tea is the freshest because they package their tea within days of being handpicked in the tea fields. By packaging and shipping their tea straight from the tea field, Dilmah Tea is able to provide tea with higher antioxidant levels and better flavor than most found on the market today."

Dilmah is the world’s first ethically made tea and holds a unique position as a tea producer-owned, fully integrated family business.

4. Earl Grey – This full-bodied Ceylon tea features just a slight earthy character, beautifully balanced by the sweet floral bergamot flavor with just a hint of citrus.

Watte Single Estate Tea. Fortune Magazine observes that “Dilmah is taking a leaf from the wine industry” by producing tea from estates at a various elevations, resulting in “high-end and chic,” nuanced and quintessentially authentic flavors. From the dark, chocolately and robust Nilagama Estate tea grown at 800 feet, to the straw pale, exquisitely delicate tea from Lover’s Leap Estate at nearly 6,000 feet, each of the Single Estate varieties deliver a unique gourmet experience.

1. Nilagama Estate – Low grown - 800 feet above sea level. Dark brown, almost chocolatey, ripe tasting tea. Round tannins, full bodied, with a big structure and fleshy. Like cabernet sauvignon, this tea is grown on flat lands and lower altitudes with lots of sun. An authentic, suave and stately tea.

2. Doombagastalawa Estate – Mid grown - 3,300 feet above sea level. Dark golden brown with a biscuity taste. Medium bodied, deliciously dry and generous. Analogous to a syrah grown in warm but not hot climate areas, on steeper slopes facing the sun. A handsome and impeccable tea.

3. Somerset Estate - High grown – 4,600 feet above sea level. Medium brown with tints of orange. An almost savory taste. Fruity, exotic perfume with a 'balance' in taste from the ample tannins, strong but not brooding.† Comparable to a Pinot Noir wine made from grapes grown in cool climates. A tea that is delicate, radiant and elegant.

4. Lovers Leap Estate - High grown – 5,700 feet above sea level. Light brown-yellow with green nuances. Bright, breezy, effortlessly light and snappy yet with tannins of fortitude. Long lasting in aftertaste. Like Champagne made from cool climate grapes picked just before they get too ripe. An exquisite and alluring tea. (Lover’s Leap Estate)
