ORIGIN: Organic black tea, Indulgashinna Village, Uva province Sri Lanka
Harvested at 1,600-1,800 meters in the eastern highlands of Sri Lanka, this black tea comes from the pioneering Indulgashinna Village, the first in the country to be certified organic ‑1987 and biodynamic‑1999. The estate was established in 1984 and is located in the renowned Uva Province, known for its crisp climate and high-elevation terroirs that impart distinct aromatic complexity to the leaf. The estate’s summer-harvested “orange pekoe” grade tea is a wholeleaf Black tea, produced using traditional rolling and oxidation techniques. The result is a rich and expressive base infusion that delivers structure, brightness, and layers of warm spice and dried fruit tones to the finished beverage. Indulgashinna is also deeply committed to social and environmental sustainability, with fairtrade certification since 1992, an on-site school, retirement home, and numerous CSR initiatives benefitting over 2,100 members of the surrounding community. The project manages 274 hectares of organic tea gardens and 10 hectares of biodynamic coffee, producing around 200 tonnes of premium tea per year.
