Our Story

  Ruhuna, Brewing Fine Tea since 1760  

The teas of Ruhuna are defined as “low-grown” as they are cultivated at an altitude not exceeding 600m comprising vast sub regions from coastal plains to the Southern edge of Sinharaja Rain Forest.

The soil, combined with the low elevation of the estates, causes the tea-bush to grow rapidly, producing a long, beautiful leaf. Full-flavoured black tea is a distinctively unique Ruhuna speciality. Ruhuna factories produce a wide variety of leaf styles and sizes, including prized “tips”.

​

We’re passionate about creating delicious gourmet teas using only the finest 100% organic and fair trade ingredients.
