About Miss TeaSmith

We source teas from all over Sri Lanka – from the cool mountains to the hot and abundant plains. The terroir of these different regions naturally leads itself to blending teas with subtle and fuller flavours. For the more subtle blends, we use blank tea from the highlands. The humidity, the contrast of cool temperatures and the rich soil produce a delicate aroma and flavour. For a fuller punchier taste, we use tea from the lower slopes and plains, which have a richer flavour with a real kick to it. Sri Lanka’s unique landscape gives its tea its renowned complexity in flavour and its characteristic strength and fragrance. Tea estates in Sri Lanka have a long established tradition of nurturing and producing fabulous teas. Knowing which tea varieties will thrive in a particular soil is as important as choosing the right vine for a vineyard. The tea growers nurture the plants and, just at the right time, carefully hand pick the bud and top two tea leaves. These are dried, heated and rolled to bring out their unique flavour. In this artisan method of processing, the tea leaves remain as whole as possible, perfectly preserving their complex, sweet and aromatic flavours. We combine some of the world’s most sophisticated teas with dried flowers, herbs and spices to give them a unique and exciting character. From Sri Lanka to your home.Read their story
