A Sri Lankan family owned business offering Single Estate Tea. Hand plucked, ethically produced and packed at source at Greenwood Estate, Nawalapitiya, Sri Lanka.Green leaves for our teas are sourced from our own tea plantation and from over 1500 tiny tea gardens of small tea growers in Nawalapitiya of 'Western Medium-Kandy'​ tea region of Sri Lanka.Cautiously selected green leaves are received within the same day of plucking. After withering, several grades of teas are produced and packed at the factory according to Colombo Tea Auction demand.Teas that are produced for direct sales come to you without middlemen and without ageing in warehouses for weeks & months, therefore the freshness, goodness and the integrity of the teas are well preserved.The history of GREENWOOD dates back to 1850's, where the British established a coffee plantation in a mountanious land in the western region of the central Kandyan hills. When the coffee industry was devastated by Coffee Rust in the late 19th century, GREENWOOD was also been converted into a lush Tea plantation, in 1890s. The current Tea Factory was commissioned in 1925 and been managed by both foreign and Local companies time to time, until late local entrepreneur A.W.M. Ukkubanda acquired both plantation and the factory in 1968.Since then, GREENWOOD has been managed by the Bandara family and currently by the second and third generations.Our goal is to help local communities to enhance their livelihoods by maximising earnings to retain within the producing region.Get in touch with usFacebook & Instagram: @greenwoodteas
