The art of authentic Ceylon tea
Born from the mist-covered hills of Sri Lanka, our teas connect centuries of craftsmanship with moments of calm, pleasure and wellbeing, from our farmers to your cup.
Signature blends
Rooted in the Uva highlands, drawn from across the island
Our highland plant stands at Passara, in the Uva hills of eastern Sri Lanka, where dry seasonal winds sweep the slopes and give the leaf its distinctly aromatic character. It is one of four Ceylon Lush factories, alongside our new Passara plant, Mathugama and Morapitiya.
Green leaf comes straight from around 8,000 smallholder farmers, with no broker in between, and is made into tea in our own factories.
Not a marketing line. The way the company is built.

One island, many characters
Elevation, mist and monsoon shape every leaf. Sri Lanka's growing regions each lend their tea a character of its own, and we blend across them to build every Ceylon Lush cup.

Which tea is yours?
Answer four short questions: morning or evening, bold or delicate, and we will match you with your perfect Ceylon cup.
A mindful pause, every day
Tea is more than what is in the cup. It is the ritual of preparation, the anticipation of aroma and the quiet pause that turns an ordinary moment into something meaningful.
From leaf to cup
Every Ceylon Lush tea travels a quiet, careful road, one that begins in mountain mist and ends in a moment that belongs entirely to you.
