Fancy a spot of Tea?
Sri Lanka is one of the world's foremost exporters in tea, and is known for its high-quality, high-grown black teas.
As Sri Lanka was known as Ceylon up until the very recent past, most people know and recognise the moniker of "Ceylon Tea"; and you may get a blank look or two if you mention anything about "Sri Lankan Tea".
