Sri Lanka To Donate “Pure Ceylon Tea” for Australian Bushfire Refugees

During last few months we heard few heart breaking news related to fires. Amazon rain forest was burning last year & quite recently we saw the damage did by bushfire in Australia. Over thirty innocent people died and millions of animals also got caught to the fire. Even though Sri Lanka is a small developing island, she raised her helping hand to Australia. As Sri Lankan President’s Office had reported, His Excellency The President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in telephone conversation with The Honourable Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison expressed his empathy to Australians.

President Rajapaksa had sympathized deeply with the families who have lost their loved ones to the bushfire. Having suffered through natural disasters like the 2004 tsunami, floods and so on, President Rajapaksa said that Sri Lankan people fully understand the horror Australian citizens are suffering at this moment.

As world renowned Ceylon Tea is a favorite and comforting beverage to Australian citizens, President Rajapaksa hopes that the tea that Sri Lanka is donating would help raise the spirits of Australians in these trying times. Sri Lanka Tea Board is currently arranging a consignment with Sri Lankan Tea Export Companies to be dispatched as soon as possible. Heritage Teas where I am working for is also going to contribute with 25’000 enveloped tea bags on behalf of innocent bushfire refugees.

Specialty of Ceylon Tea (Appeared on Tea with Nipun)

a. According to a claim made by the International Standard Organization (ISO), Ceylon tea is the Cleanest Tea origin in the world considering pesticide residues.

b. United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) has also recognized Sri Lankan Tea as the First Ozone friendly / Ethical Tea Origin in the world. View more details on Ozone Friendly story via URL:

c. Even though Sri Lanka is a small Island which is also know as “The Pearl of Indian Ocean”, “Asia’s Sweet Heart” and “The Wonder of Asia”, the diversity (Regional difference) of Ceylon Tea is quite amazing. One would enjoy a light, fragrant Nuwara-Eliya Tea from the highest mountain peak with Citrus notes while another is enjoying a strong, full bodied Ruhuna Tea from Ruhuna region situated in the down south. More details on regional diversity will be discussed desperately.

d. Sensory-wise, Ceylon Tea has got a well-balanced taste with ideal strength, flavor and aroma for a perfect cup of tea.


e. Although hand shears and mechanical tea harvesters are used pluck at very few tea fields, Sri Lankan tea is plucked exclusively by human hand.

Simply speaking, Pure Ceylon Tea is a Pure Enhancement in A Cup !
