おすすめの飲み方

Shitaka Tea Estate is attracting attention for its high quality that is both fragrant and safe.

Established in 1991 in the Ratnapura region of Sri Lanka, this new tea plantation has been gaining popularity in recent years. Efficient tea production is supported by modern equipment such as 8 rolling machines and a tea leaf sorter made in Japan, thanks to the sincere work of well-trained staff. We continue to make high-quality black tea in a factory that is managed cleanly to every corner.

"Sabaragamuwa" began to be evaluated as a high-class tea due to its popularity in the Middle East.

Sabaragamuwa is a tea-producing area in southern Sri Lanka. The area formerly called Ruhuna was divided and the northern part of the old Ruhuna was established as a new area as Sabaragamuwa. Although the altitude is slightly higher than the current Ruhuna area, it belongs to the low-grown area with the lowest altitude among other tea-producing areas in Sri Lanka. Due to the high temperature, the tea leaves grow large and produce strong-tasting black tea throughout the year. Compared to Dimbula and Uva, it is not a well-known production area in Japan, but as one of the seven major production areas of Ceylon, it is especially liked by people in the Middle East area, and high-quality products are traded at high prices.
