Tea has been used as medicine for centuries. Now modern science is discovering what people in China and throughout the world have long known: tea is good for you. While green and black tea are very healthy, white tea is the least processed tea and has the highest antioxidant levels. It may be the supreme Drink of Health.

Antioxidants are nutrients that protect the body from damage by free radicals. Free radicals are nasty things that go around wreaking havoc on your body, damaging DNA and accelerating aging. Antioxidants scoop them up and neutralize them. White tea is loaded with these protective nutrients.

White tea may have profound power against cancer-causing cells and against many different types of cancer, such as colon, prostate, and stomach cancers. Flavonoids, a class of antioxidants, inhibit the growth of cancer cells and prevent the development of new ones. In some cases, white tea has been found to work as well as prescription drugs, but without the side effects.

Studies show that white tea can thin the blood and improve artery function. It helps lower high blood pressure and maintain a healthy one. By promoting strong and healthy blood vessels, white tea guards against the ravages of stroke.

Catechins, another group of antioxidants, have been found to reduce cholesterol, and white tea is teeming with them. Cholesterol is a special type of fat and is necessary for health. There is good cholesterol and bad cholesterol, and white tea increases the good while decreasing the bad. This helps prevent hardening of the arteries and blockage of blood flow.

By thinning the blood, lowering blood pressure, and reducing cholesterol, white tea protects the heart and the entire circulatory system. Researchers have also discovered that people who drink 2 or more cups of tea a day are almost 50% less likely to die after suffering a heart attack. White tea is truly a remarkable heart tonic.

Studies have found that people who drank tea regularly had greater bone density and strength than non-drinkers. White tea may also have beneficial effects for sufferers of arthritis and osteoporosis.

White tea is a natural killer of bacteria and viruses. The antioxidants so abundant in white tea tone the entire immune system, providing protection against a variety of invaders and a wide range of diseases. Its helps guard against the common cold and flu, and can ease the symptoms of HIV.

White tea contains small amounts of fluoride and other nutrients which keeps the teeth strong and healthy. It also kills the bacteria which causes plaque, tooth decay, and bad breath.
Free radicals from staying out in the sun too long, stress, and a poor diet can damage the skin and cause it to prematurely age. By scavenging these free radicals, white tea protects the skin and helps to reverse some of the damage. Drinking white tea promotes healthy and radiant skin.

White tea has many other benefits to offer. It may reduce blood sugar and help prevent and alleviate the symptoms of diabetes. It reduces stress and increases energy.
White tea may or may not aid in weight-loss. Studies suggest tea may increase metabolism and encourage the body to burn more fat, but a balanced diet and regular exercise are more likely to produce results. Still, adding white tea to your weight-loss plan can’t hurt.

White tea protects against cancer, heart disease, and stroke, the leading causes of death in the industrial world, as well as numerous other conditions. It eases the symptoms of illness and promotes recovery. White tea strengthens the circulatory and immune systems as well as bones and teeth, and builds

O CHÁ É UMA CHÁVENA DE VIDA

Tea or Water? Both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-01-08T10:40:00.005Z

Tea or Water? Both!

Is tea healthier for you than water? Drinking three or more cups of tea a day is as good for you as drinking plenty of water and may even have extra health benefits, say researchers. The work in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition dispels the common belief that tea dehydrates.

Tea not only rehydrates as well as water does, but it can also protect against heart disease and some cancers, UK nutritionists found.

Experts believe flavonoids are the key ingredient in tea that promotes health. These polyphenol antioxidants are found in many foods and plants, including tea leaves, and have been shown to help prevent cell damage. They found clear evidence that drinking three to four cups of tea a day can cut the chances of having a heart attack. Some studies suggested tea consumption protected against cancer, although this effect was less clear-cut. Other health benefits seen included protection against tooth plaque and potentially tooth decay, plus bone strengthening.

"Drinking tea is actually better for you than drinking water.

Water is essentially replacing fluid. Tea replaces fluids and contains antioxidants so it's got two things going for it." Tea is rehydrating. "Studies on caffeine have found very high doses dehydrate and everyone assumes that caffeine-containing beverages dehydrate. But even if you had a really, really strong cup of tea or coffee, which is quite hard to make, you would still have a net gain of fluid.

Besides the fact that tea is as much a rehydrating agent as water, it is an extremely potent antioxidant and anticancer agent. This is mostly due to the flavonoids and polyphenol antioxidants that are natural ingredients in the beverage.

"A cup of tea contains fluoride, which is good for the teeth,"

There was no evidence that tea consumption was harmful to health. However, research suggests that tea can impair the body's ability to absorb iron from food; meaning people at risk of anemia should avoid drinking tea around mealtimes.

"Studies in the laboratory have shown potential health benefits. "The evidence in humans is not as strong and more studies need to be done. But there are definite potential health benefits from the polyphenols in terms of reducing the risk of diseases such as heart disease and cancers. "In terms of fluid intake, we recommend 1.5-2 liters per day and that can include tea.

Tea is not dehydrating. It is a healthy drink."

Tea leaves are a very rich source of flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of naturally occurring plant compounds that function as antioxidants. They are plant pigments and even if they are not labeled as essential nutrients, they enhance the processing of vitamin C, which is itself a powerful antioxidant. Flavonoids are also needed to maintain capillary walls and protect against infections.

Deficiency of flavonoids may lead to easily bruising.
Flavonoids are extremely potent anti-oxidants. Antioxidant properties of the natural pigments fight against molecular oxidation by the free radicals; this is why they are called anti-oxidants. In our body, an infinite number of chemical reactions take place every day. A part of the chemical changes in the cells that use oxygen give birth to free radicals, which are harmful for the cells and the organism.

An excessive amount of free radicals interact with the DNA or parts of the other cells in the body and may damage them. But the antioxidants counteract and neutralize these organic "enemies." For the study, researchers have analyzed a large number of scientific works on water and tea's properties and effects upon our health. They found that tea rehydrates our body as well as water, but it also contains the "magic" ingredients, which keeps us from a wide range of various health disorders.

Imporcha-oriental Sensations...Green Tea

2009-09-23T16:00:00.018+01:00

Green Tea

Green Tea is also made of the young tender tea leaves; and only differs from black tea in the way it is processed. It is something that is basically coming from the ancient Chinese civilizations; now modernized to suit present day requirements. Its rich goodness can be gauged from an old Chinese proverb which says,

"Better to be deprived of food for three days, than tea for one."

Green tea is very commonly used for conditions such as obesity, weight loss and as dietary supplements. Unlike most of the other medicinal prescriptions that contain inorganic compounds and chemicals that have harmful after effects and cause damage to your internal organs, green tea is very safe to take and has an awesome line of health benefits; starting from the ancient

Chinese who used green tea mainly

for depression and headaches, now green tea is known to be good for burning fat, weight loss and metabolism; prevention or the reduction of risks of some specific cancers, heart diseases, thrombosis; treatment of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, multiple sclerosis, impaired immune functions, rheumatoid arthritis, cardio vascular diseases and tooth decay and dental plaque; reduction of blood cholesterol level and improvement of the ratio of good to bad cholesterol etc.

Tea not only to Drink............

2009-08-22T14:57:00.007+01:00

Now you can take all the goodness of Eden Grove’s Estate Organic White Tea and make a superb, delicious meal. Eden Grove’s Organic White Tea, with Ceylon spice for fish & meat, will provide you, your family, and guests with a truly unique culinary experience.

White Tea is a rare tea treasure. The most tender and soft after-buds are hand-plucked only two days of the year in early spring. The workers carefully hand-pick the silver buds and select leaves. The tea is then simply air-dried in natural sunlight to help preserve more of the natural antioxidant properties of Organic White Tea.

Different types of tea yield different marble colors. Green tea yields exquisite yellow shades.
This tea is also scrumptious with fish, beef, pork, lamb or chicken, and it has the added benefit of tenderizing meats. But don’t limit yourself to just one recipe!

I’ll drink — and eat — to that!

Tea Rub Chicken Serves 4

1 cup Eden Grove Organic White Tea Rub for Chicken
4 boneless chicken breasts with skin
¼ cup Cold press olive oil
2 shallots, minced
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1. Spread the Eden Grove Organic tea rub on a large plate and dredge the chicken breasts in it on both sides.

2. Take the leftover Eden Grove Organic White Tea Rub for Chicken and mix with the cold press olive oil, shallots and lemon juice/zest. Grind fresh peppercorns and salt to taste into the paste and brush on the breasts.

3. Grill over coals about thirty minutes, turning every five minutes and basting with the reserved marinade.

Seven Reasons to Love Tea

2009-08-13T11:19:00.007+01:00

Seven Reasons to Love Tea

The number one reason is that tea tastes good! It is fairly easy to lose sight of this when we think about the many other attributes of tea.

Tea is both refreshing and relaxing.

Tea is full of powerful natural compounds that are beneficial to health. Scientists have found that tea can have an inhibitory effect on cardiovascular disease and certain forms of cancer. It contributes to good oral health and has been found to help maintain bone density and reduce stress.

Tea is a natural product, virtually devoid of calories, fat, sodium and other potentially harmful ingredients.

Tea is versatile and compatible with many foods and flavorings.

Tea provides a nearly endless array of taste sensations. Like fine wines, the rarest forms of tea are sought after the world over. Yet tea is inexpensive, even in its most exotic forms.

Tea represents Old World traditions. Inviting friends for tea can provide an elegant social occasion.

Os efeitos que mais deterioram o envelhecimento são as toxinas e as impurezas (chamadas ama em Ayurveda), que se acumulam no corpo. Estas toxinas podem começar por ser radicais livres no corpo, ou podem, com o tempo, ficar oxidadas em radicais livres, o que contribui para o envelhecimento prematuro do corpo. Para uma saúde e beleza duradouras, é essencial evitar e neutralizar os radicais livres para impedir que todos os tipos de impurezas se acumulem, e para remover aqueles que já estão alojados no corpo.

Para completar o seu tratamento Eden Grove Bath Spa poderá disfrutar de um dos chás branco ou verde da gama Eden Grove.

Caffeine and Tea

2009-07-20T00:06:00.019+01:00

What Is Caffeine????

Caffeine was first discovered in tea in 1827, and was named theine. It was later found in mate and various other plants. Eventually it was shown that the theine of tea was identical with the caffeine of coffee, and the term theine was then dropped.

Does Tea Contain More Caffeine Than Coffee?????
While coffee and tea are both sources of caffeine, the amounts of caffeine in any single serving of these beverages varies significantly. An average serving of coffee contains the most caffeine, yet the same serving size of tea provides only 1/2 to 1/3 as much.One of the more confusing aspects of caffeine content is the fact that coffee contains less caffeine than tea when measured in its dry form. The caffeine content of a prepared cup of coffee is significantly higher than the caffeine content of a prepared cup of tea

Tea Black (8oz) 40mg

Tea Green (8oz) 20mg

Tea White(8oz) 10mg

Coca Cola (12 oz can) 34 mg

Pepsi (12 oz can) 38 mg

Barq's Root Beer (12 oz can) 22 mg

Chocolate milk (8 oz) 4 mg

Dark chocolate (1 oz) 20 mg

Milk chocolate (1 oz) 6 mg

What is Decaffeinated Tea??

Decaf tea is any tea that has undergone a process which eliminates most of the caffeine content. Two processes are currently used to commercially decaffeinate tea, an ethyl acetate and a CO2 method. While the ethyl acetate method is cheaper and easier, the CO2 method has been proven much safer. Decaf tea is the perfect alternative for tea lovers who are trying to lower their caffeine intake.

Benefits of Tea

Numerous studies have demonstrated the anti-cancer properties of antioxidant polyphenols. Some studies have suggested that tea's polyphenols may reduce the risk of gastric, esophageal and skin cancers, if one consumes 4 to 6 cups daily. Another study showed that just 2 cups of tea may lower the risk of ovarian cancer by 46 percent in women. Other studies have found that polyphenols help prevent blood clotting and lower cholesterol levels. One Japanese study found that Green Tea lowers death rates from heart Disease.

Blooming Teas or Flowering Teas

2009-07-13T16:52:00.006+01:00

Blooming Teas

A finest collection of hand-sewn green and white tea with fresh flowers.
These beautiful display teas are a delight for both your eyes and taste buds. They are mini floral bouquets that bloom when water is poured over them. The blooms have been created by skilled artists in China who hand tie jasmine scented green tea leaves around fresh flower blossoms. The results are small tea balls with a unique sweet scent and flavour. One bloom may take 1 minute up to 10 minutes for sewing depending on the shapes and flowering types. While still moist the leaves are shaped into balls, mushrooms, cones etc and finally the teas go through the usual drying, oxidation and firing process.

Method of Preparation

Place one bloom in a teapot (a clear glass teapot is recommended so you may watch it unfurl). Bring water to a low boil and pour over tea. The tea leaves will unfurl and the tea flower will slowly open. Allow to steep 2-3 minutes, or to desired strength.
After enjoying the first pot, a Flowering Tea may be re-steeped 2-3 more times. The tea you make should be decanted into teacups within a short period of time so that leaves do not remain in hot water, which would adversely affect the fine taste of this tea. Please note that above estimations are based upon a teapot which holds 18-20 ounces.
Alternatively, you can also place blooms in wide mouthed wine glasses and pour 5 – 7 ounces of low boiling water.

1. Good Luck Bloom
Delicate and delicious spring green tea hand-wrapped around beautiful jasmine buds brews a lovely bouquet of tropical flavours and rich fragrance.

2. Flower of Wealth
Delicate and delicious spring green tea brews into a lovery bouquet of chrysanthemum blossom with colorful marigold petals.

3. Spring Delight
Delicate and delicious spring green tea brews delightful and colourful jasmine and marigold flowers reminiscent of spring time.

Sendo assim, literalmente a palavra Ayurveda signfica a Ciência da Vida ou Ayus, de acordo com Ayurveda, é a combinação dos sentidos, da mente, do corpo e da alma. Deste modo, Ayuverda não se limita aos sintomas corporais e fisicos, mas também permite um conhecimento compreensivo da saúde espiritual, mental e emocional. O sistema de tratamento tradicional de Ayuverda baseia-se na teoria de equilibrio entre o corpo (físico), a alma (espiritual) e a
mente (o psicológico). As soluções de saúde oferecidas por Ayurveda tornaram-na popular em todo o mundo.

3. Calming tea - Chá Calmante é uma mistura de Cha Verde através de um antigo metodo chinês com ervas Ayuverdicas naturais tais como Hataawariya e Asmodagam. A adição de limonete torna o Chá bastante suave e cardamomo torna-o distinto e ajuda a manter a frescura. O sabor total é completado com uma pitada de jasmim.

4.

"Tea is the second most common beverage in the world".......second only to water!

All the teas come from the "Camellia Sinensis"plant (Black, Green, Oolong,White) however, there are many "teas" that are infusions of different plants and herbs that have other properties.

There are many various health benefits of tea that vary by the type of tea.

Types of Tea
1. Black Tea-Black tea is the most common type of tea in our culture. It is tasty with milk and sugar, with honey, or by itself. Black tea is a variety of tea that is more oxidized than the Oolong, green, and white varieties. Black tea is generally stronger in flavor and contains more caffeine than the less oxidized teas.

2.Green Tea-Green tea is a type of tea made solely with the leaves of the tea plant that has undergone minimal oxidation during processing. There are many health benefits of green tea.

3.Traditional Oolong Tea-Oolong is a traditional Chinese tea some where between green and black in oxidation. It ranges from 10% to 70% oxidation. Oolong has a taste more akin to green tea than to black tea: it lacks the rosy, sweet aroma of black tea but it likewise does not have the stridently grassy notes that typify green tea.

4. White Tea-White Tea is the uncured and unoxidized tea leaf.White tea is very different in flavor from other teas. The flavor of white tea is far more delicate than other teas. It also has a sweeter flavor than other teas, and is paler in color. In addition, white tea has very little aroma.

5. Rooibos Tea-Rooibos teas are herbal infusions often called "Red tea", made from a South African red bush. Red tea is usually sweet and delicious either hot or iced. These naturally caffeine-free teas are extremely high in antioxidants and typically Vitamin C as well, as they often contain fruit pieces.

What is an antioxidant? An antioxidant is a compound, which retards oxidation. In the body antioxidants can 'soak up' free radicals.

6. Masala Chai Tea or Bombay Chai-We often use the term chai to refer to the spiced tea that is common in India, Srilanka, called masala chai. Masala chai can be made in many variations, but is often black tea mixed with spices such as cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, anise, peppercorn, and ginger etc…

What Is Organic Tea??????

Organic produce is everywhere. We can buy organic vegetables, fruits, and even “organically raised” meat.

Organic beverages such as tea and coffee are also available and they are very popular. But how can you be sure the organic tea you buy is really organic?

Organic produce, tea included, is usually more expensive than non-organic brands. What’s to stop an unscrupulous tea vendor from falsely labeling his tea “organic” simply to get a better price?

What is Organic Tea?
Organic varieties are grown without the use of chemical pesticides or fertilizers. The soil is enriched with natural compost and a layer of mulch retains the moisture while providing extra nutrients as it breaks down.

This growing method is more labor-intensive but produces superior quality tea. Tea competitions in Srilanka,India,China, Japan, and Taiwan have consistently chosen organic teas as the best teas of their class. In addition to the improved flavor, the organic varieties are also higher in health promoting polyphenols and catechins.

These are the antioxidants that provide many of the health benefits that tea is famous for. Scientific studies have shown that these compounds are found in higher concentrations in good quality tea.

Organic tea is also better for the tea farmer. Tea plants can live more than 100 years, and organic farming methods allow the tea plants to remain healthy for the duration of their lifespan.
This means that the farmer has less expense in replacing tea plants.

When You Buy Organic Tea… Is it Really Organic?????

When you pick up a package of tea that is labeled “organic” how can you be sure it’s the real Organic? For one thing, there are several governmental and non-government agencies that certify products as being organic.

Organizations like the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movement (IFOAM) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA),SKAL-INT Japanese Agricultural Standards(JAS)have certification programs that examine the growing practices of a particular tea plantation and issue certificates to those that meet their requirements.

Packaged organic brew is required to meet the standards of the certifying agency, so look for tea that has the label of a recognized agency.

Above all, however, you should rely on your taste buds to tell you whether a tea is really organic.

It should titillate the taste buds with complex flavors and subtle delights.
If it is not superb, it is probably not organic. You are paying a premium for this tea, so accept nothing short of the best.

Assim, ao mesmo tempo que está a beber uma chávena de chá verde pode estar a proteger o seu organismo dos efeitos nocivos da poluição ou dos maus hábitos alimentares, pois as catequinas, um fitonutriente da família dos polifenóis, tem uma forte acção antioxidante.

Classical Tea Bags or Silken Pyramids????

The same question could be asked of you as a tea consumer:

Tea Bags or Silken Pyramids?

Do you know the differences between paper filtered and Pyramid tea bags and why you might choose one over the other? Typically, most grocery-store mass produced tea bags are made of paper. Nowadays most of the whole loose leaves are usually placed into Bioderadable silken Pyramids. The difference between the two is a matter of infusion, aesthetics and manufacturing cost.

For the mass tea manufacturer, normal tea bags are the cheapest form of product packaging. The paper tea bag has been an industry standard for so long that just about anyone can build a die and begin to manufacturer the bags.However, if you tear open a bag of mass-produced store bought tea what do you notice? You notice how ground up the tea leaves are.

The unique shape of the pyramid allows to fill the silken infuser with premium ingredients-Real Leaf Teas,Whole Buds,Flowers,Natural herbs,Exotic Spices and real fruit pieces.Each blend,cradled in the Pyramid,speaks of perfection and delivers maximum enjoyment.The structure of Pyramids has given the opportunity to fill the most ingredients and herbs which was never possible with the restrictions of a classical tea bsg(paper).The magic of the pyramid is-as you begin to brew your tea,just watch your cup unfold,as each ingredients is free to release all its flavour,dancing in the cup,swirling in the water.The fine silk fabric allows a clear view through the bag,you will find yourself examining each ingredient.Beaitiful to eye and makes your moment pleasure and unforgettable.

History about Tea

2009-06-16T09:09:00.012+01:00

In the 1840 a Scotsman by the name of James Taylor read about the Jewel of an Island called Ceylon and the opportunities existing there for growing coffee. A few months later he moved to the Hill Country area and planted not only coffee but also some tea seeds from India. The "ugly little shrub" was grown next to his acres of coffee and provided large yields. It wasn't till a couple of seasons later that a virulent leaf disease devastated his whole plantation but the "ugly little shrub" was immune and the Tea Industry came into being. Soon the perilously steep mountainside of the hill country were carpeted with the vibrant green of tea bushes.

And Ceylon Tea became the worlds favorite beverage.

The origins of Tea was with the Chinese Emperor Shen Nung who was boiling water when the leaves from a nearby plant Camellia sinensis plant floated into the pot. The emperor drank the mixture and declared it gave one "vigor of body, contentment of mind, and determination of purpose." Perhaps as testament to the emperor's assessment, tea the potion he unwittingly brewed that day today is second only to water in worldwide consumption.

The U.S. population is drinking its fair share of the brew; in 1994, Americans drank 2.25 billion gallons of tea in one form or another hot, iced, spiced, flavored, with or without sugar, honey, milk, cream, or lemon.

Cultivation

The Tea plant, Camellia Sinesis, is cultivated variety of the tree originating from the region between India and China. The tea leaves are mostly hand plucked. When the plant is plucked two leaves and a bud are cut.

An experienced plucker can pluck up to 30 kg tea leaves per day. To make one kg black tea, approximately 4 kg tea leaves are needed. One tea plant produces about 70 kg black tea a year.

In a warm climate the plant is plucked for the first time after 4 years and will produce tea for at least 50 years. A suitable climate for cultivation has a minimum annual rainfall of 45 to 50 inches (l, 140 to 1,270 millimeters). Tea soils must be acid; tea cannot be grown in alkaline soils. A desirable pH value is 5.8 to 5.4 or less.

Scented and spiced teas are made from black tea. "Scented teas look just like any other tea,"

says FDA chemist and tea expert Robert Dick, " because the scent is more or less sprayed on. They're flavored with just about anything peach, vanilla, cherry. The spiced teas, on the other hand, usually contain pieces of spices cinnamon or nutmeg or orange or lemon peel so you can see there's something in there.

"Black Tea BlendsLike coffee plants, tea likes hot days, cool nights and plenty of rain, and also like coffee, most high quality tea is grown in mountainous regions. During the growing season, tea is harvested every seven days. Only the two tender uppermost leaves and terminal buds are plucked by hand. After this gentle beginning, the leaves are left in a hot room to wither, then put into a machine that rolls the leaves and releases their juices. These juices react with the air (oxidation) giving black teas the color and flavor we love. The tea is then dried in ovens (fired) and graded according to size. (this grading process is what is responsible for all of those confusing letters:

OP (Orange Pekoe), BP (Broken Pekoe), and even FTGFOP (Fancy Tippy Golden Flowery Pekoe). Generally the more initials the better the Tea.

Herbal Teas---Not tea at all.

Dried flowers, roots and bark have been brewed into a consumable hot liquid for many centuries as folk medicines throughout the Orient and Europe. The European tradition is to use only one main herb, such as Chamomile. Americans, on the other hand, traditionally concoct potions containing many different herbs and flowers such as Camomile,Valerian,Rose Petals,Peppermint leaves,Lemongrass,Scarlet Berry,Rosehips and Hibiscus.

What is Pure Ceylon Tea

2009-06-11T00:54:00.007+01:00

Teas from the highest region on the island are described as the ‘champagne’ of Ceylon teas.
Until the 1860’s THE MAIN CROP PRODUCED on the island of Sri Lanka, then Ceylon, was coffee. But in 1869, the coffee-rust fungus, Hemileia vastatrix, killed the majority of of the coffee plants and estate owners had to diversify into other crops in order to avoid total ruin. The owners of Loolecondera Estate had been interested in tea since the late 1850’s and in 1866, James Taylor, a recently arrived Scot, was selected to be in charge of the first sowing of tea seeds in 1867, on 19 acres of land.

Taylor had acquired some basic knowledge of tea cultivation in North India and made some initial experiments in manufacture, using his bungalow verandah as the factory and rolling the leaf by hand on tables. Firing of the oxidized leaf was carried out on clay stoves over charcoal fires with the leaf on wire trays. His first teas were sold locally and were declared delicious. By 1872, Taylor had a fully equipped factory, and, in 1873, his first quality teas were sold for a very good price at the London auction. Through his dedication and determination, Taylor was largely responsible for the early success of the tea crop in Ceylon. Between 1873 and 1880, production rose from just 23 pounds to 81.3 tons, and by 1890, to 22,899.8 tons.

Most of the Ceylon tea gardens are situated at elevations between 3,000 and 8,000 feet in two areas of the southwestern part of the island, to the east of Colombo and in the Galle district on the southern point. In the hot, steamy plains and foothills, the tea bushes flush every seven or eight days and are picked all year round. The finest teas are gathered from late June to the end of August in eastern districts and from the beginning of February to mid-March in the western parts.

Until 1971, more than 80 percent of the island’s tea estates were owned and managed by British companies. In 1971, the Sri Lankan government introduced a Land Reform Act which gave the state control of the majority of the plantations (which also grow rubber and coconuts for export) leaving about one-third in private hands. Since 1990, a restructuring program has been going on to involve the private sector companies (both Sri Lankan and foreign) as Managing Agents of the state-owned plantations. The long-term aim is for the private managing companies to take on most, if not all, of the financial responsibility and control of the estates, with the government retaining ownership.

Extreme political, industrial, and economic problems over the past years have meant that Sri Lanka has fallen from the position of number one producer in the world to number eight in 1993. Producers are having to face major decisions regarding production methods, product range, and export markets. Although the U.K was once Sri Lanka’s biggest customer, almost 70 percent of production now goes to Russia, the Middle East, and North Africa. The Arab market used to prefer orthodox teas but consumers there are steadily moving towards European tastes and are demanding more tea in tea bags. Sri Lanka’s fine orthodox teas, considered by many to be among the best teas in the world, are not suitable for tea bags. Only 3 percent of production in 1993 was CTC and producers are having to decide whether to convert to CTC production in order to reach a wider market. Some manufacturers think that there will always be a market for the orthodox teas; others think that CTC is the best way forward. New customers are also being sought for the increasing range of packeted teas—in sachets, cartons, economy packs, reed ware, basket packs, soft wood boxes, tins, and canisters—that are now available.

Products containing 100 percent Ceylon tea are now using the Lion logo, developed by the Ceylon Tea Board, that guarantees the country of origin and protects the image of Sri Lanka’s quality teas.
