King George VI - Earl Grey Teabags

Located in Sri Lanka’s Central Province, Nuwara Eliya is about 40 km south of Kandy in the hill country. The district's terrain is mainly mountainous, featuring deep valleys and expansive estates surrounded by dense forests. Nuwara Eliya, situated at 1,868 meters above sea level, is near Sri Lanka's highest peak, Pidurutalagala, at 2,542 meters, and the sacred Adam's Peak at 2,243 meters. Known as 'Little England,' the area retains a cool, temperate climate, making it apopular British colonial hill station and a contemporary resort destination.

Temperatures here are moderate year-round, peaking at 22°C in March and April and cooling to between 9°C and 20°C from November to January. The region, lying within the Wet Zone, experiences heavy cloud cover and consistent rainfall, especially from October to November, with milder rain from December to March. These conditions, along with fertile soils at high altitudes, are perfect for tea cultivation. After replacing disease-ravaged coffee plantations in the 1860s, tea became the predominant crop. Today, Nuwara Eliya is celebrated for its high-grown teas, renowned globally for their exceptional quality and flavour.
