The Journey of Ceylon Tea: From Highlands to Your Cup
Every cup of Ceylon Glow UK tea carries centuries of tradition. From the misty highlands of Sri Lanka to your teacup in the UK, each leaf has a story – a journey from handpicked perfection to carefully crafted blends.
The Origins of Ceylon Tea
Sri Lanka’s highlands, with fertile soil and ideal climate, produce some of the world’s finest teas. Ceylon Glow sources the highest-quality leaves from these high-altitude estates to bring premium Sri Lankan tea to UK tea lovers.
Handpicking & Processing
Quality begins at the plantation. Skilled artisans handpick every leaf, selecting only tender shoots. Leaves are carefully rolled, oxidised, and dried using time-honoured techniques, preserving the authentic flavour and aroma unique to Sri Lanka.
Flavor Profiles & Varieties
Different regions in Sri Lanka produce distinct taste notes. Ceylon Glow UK offers a range of blends – from robust black teas to refreshing green and herbal infusions reflecting the terroir of their origins.

Understanding the journey from leaf to cup enhances the experience. Brewing tea properly, noting its aroma, and savouring each sip allows UK tea lovers to appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship behind every batch.
Tracing Ceylon Glow tea UK from the highlands to your cup deepens appreciation for the heritage, skill, and craftsmanship defining premium Ceylon tea. Every sip is a celebration of tradition, flavour, and Sri Lankan excellence.
