Mevlana Tea
What makes Ceylon black tea so special
Unique climate for special taste and fast harvest
Sri Lanka's unique geography and its unique climate gave it a unique advantage over tea growers in China and India, who dominated the world tea market until then. While it usually takes between three and six years before you can harvest a tea plant, Ceylon teas can be plucked in just two years depending on the altitude.
The freshest black tea in the whole world
Black tea from Sri Lanka is considered the freshest tea on the world tea market. It is packaged within 3 weeks after harvest so that it does not lose its freshness, aroma, and fragrance. This makes it unique in this regard.
The world's first ozone-friendly tea
On the other hand, we know that this variety of tea is the world's first ozone-friendly tea. Sri Lanka complies with environmental conventions and agreements and can prove this with corresponding certificates.Careful production according to ethical values
Another very important feature that we observe during cultivation is the ethical criteria, which are perfectly observed. Sri Lanka's tea industry is well regulated and has a unionized workforce that is subject to a collective agreement.
Lowest pesticide residues, free from dust
Ceylon black tea is also the cleanest tea in the world. According to the ISO Technical Committee, black tea from Sri Lanka has the lowest pesticide residues. But it is even cleaner. For example, Mevlana Tea Ceylon black tea is made dust-free after harvest. This tea is produced in Germany by Goran Tee.Hand-picked plucking of young leaves
Hand plucking is also an important component in the production of clean tea products. This not only makes it clean but also more valuable. The hand-picked plucking of the bud and the first two tender leaves contributes to polyphenols, including theaflavins, thearubigins, caffeine, essential oils, sugar, and amino acids.
