Grown on Mattakelle Tea estate on the western slopes of Sri Lanka, the tea is harvested from a Japanese tea bush known as Benifuki that was gifted to the estate. The tea is harvested from one leaf and a bud. It has a natural rosy aroma with a jasmine floral flavour.

PLANTERS’ BREAKFAST Strong and full bodied. Before English breakfast, early tea planters enjoyed the full bodied flavours of Planters’ Breakfast in Ceylon. The perfect conditions for creating that rich full taste are found in the Dimbula Valley. This is where the award-winning Planters’ Breakfast is hand-picked.
PLANTERS’ AFTERNOON The traditional afternoon tea of cakes and sandwiches is best taken with a bright and fragrant tea. The award-winning afternoon tea is handpicked on the rolling hills of Ceylon’s Uva region. Ideal on its own or with a splash of milk. PLANTERS’ EARL GREY The most aristocratic of teas is infused with the unmistakable aroma of bergamot. To balance the citrus, you need a bold tea. The Earl Grey is handpicked and infused with a drop of natural bergamot oil.PLANTERS’ MISTRESSA light, golden tea scented with bergamot, orange and lemon peel that leaves the palate feeling refreshed with a fresh citrus flavour. PRINCE OF WALES BLENDA tribute to Edward, Prince of Wales, who held this distinguished title from 1911 to 1936. This exclusive blend features a bold black tea, carefully balanced with high-grown gunpowder green tea. To enhance its unique character, the blend is finished with a touch of dried cranberry, adding a subtle sweetness and a hint of tartness.
