Dilmah hails from Sri Lanka, one of the world's largest tea producing countries, and currently produces 25 million kilograms of tea annually and is sold in more than 100 countries around the world. Ceylon (the old name of Sri Lanka) Highland Black Tea is known as the world's four major black teas along with Anhui Keemun Black Tea, Assam Black Tea and Darjeeling Black Tea, while Dilma is known as "the world's best Ceylon tea brand" by the industry and has been recognized by the Sri Lankan government.
As one of the few international tea brands in Sri Lanka that is owned by growers, Dilma has a unique advantage in origin, and unlike other international tea brands that focus more on blending technology, 100% unblended Ceylon tea is Dilma's loudest slogan. The tea is harvested, made, and packaged in Sri Lanka, and the founder Merrill calls the tea produced with CTC "soulless tea", and always insists on using traditional handmade tea to restore the authentic Sri Lankan black tea flavor.
In terms of taste, Dilma's Ceylon black tea is close to the domestic Zhengshan small black tea, with a high aroma, strong sweetness, and a slight bitterness. If you usually like to make milk tea, then Dilma's Ceylon black tea is not to be missed, and the price is not high, with an average price of only about 0.8 yuan per sachet.
