THE HISTORY OF CEYLON TEA - THE BLACK GOLD OF SRI LANKA

Ceylon black tea is the green gold of the spice island. Because it is the second name of Sri Lanka.

Since 1972, Sri Lanka has produced the best British black tea. In fact, it was during British colonization that the culture developed to the detriment of coffee.

Ceylon tea became a world reference thanks to the British India Company.

At the beginning of the 19th century, only China supplied Western countries, i.e. Europe, with tea.

The United Kingdom will begin the development of tea culture in its colonies to no longer depend on China.

And you will discover Indian black tea from Kerala.

The British will discover a wild tea which will come from the Assam region and it will keep its name.

Assam will be planted almost everywhere in India and even in China thanks to Chinese spies.

This is why we also have ASSAM in China.

FROM COFFEE TO TEA TO SPICES

In 1834, the vast majority of coffee was grown in Ceylon. But as in Reunion with the cultivation of sugar cane desired by the English during the takeover of a few years.

The English will want to develop tea in Sri Lanka.

And they will be helped in 1869, with a fungus which will kill all the coffee plants, the Hemileia Vastatrix which we call the smut of the cage.

The English with James Taylor will plant tea plants everywhere in Ceylon. The varieties will come from China and Assam.

The first seeds of Camellia Sinensis will grow very well in Nuwara.

So the English will import grand cru teas to this island.
