The Pearl and Tears of the Indian Ocean–Black Tea from Sri Lanka


Sri Lanka, known as “Ceylon” in ancient times, is known as a tear in the Indian Ocean and is the most beautiful island in the world. The main body of the country is an island in the southern corner of the Indian Ocean, shaped like a teardrop from the South Asian subcontinent. God gave her everything except snow. She has no four seasons, and the constant temperature is 28°C all year round, just like her gentle temperament, she always smiles at you. The black tea processed by the black tea machine, the eye-catching gems, the lively and lovely elephants, and the blue water are the first impressions people have of her.

Because Sri Lanka was called Ceylon in ancient times, its black tea got this name. For hundreds of years, Sri Lanka’s tea has been grown without pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and it is known as “the cleanest black tea in the world”. At present, Sri Lanka is the third largest exporter of tea in the world. The hot climate and fertile soil create an excellent growing environment for tea. The train shuttles through the mountains and mountains, passing through the tea garden, the fragrance of tea is fragrant, and the green buds all over the mountains and the green hills complement each other. It is known as one of the most beautiful railways in the world. Moreover, Sri Lankan tea farmers have always insisted on picking only “two leaves and one bud” by hand, so as to retain the most fragrant part of the tea, even if it is placed in an ordinary tea set, it can make people feel different.

In 1867, Sri Lanka had its first commercial tea plantation, using a variety of tea harvesting machines, and it has been up to now. In 2009, Sri Lanka was awarded the world’s first ISO Tea Technology Award and was named “World’s Cleanest Tea” in the assessment of pesticides and imperceptible residues. However, the once glamorous island is suffering its worst economic crisis. Give a helping hand and drink a cup of Ceylon tea. Nothing can help Sri Lanka better!
