Who we are
Tea with a name you can stand behind
Sri Lanka has given the world Ceylon tea for over 150 years. Anew exists to carry that legacy forward — sourcing across all six growing regions and packing close to origin so the aroma, body, and brightness reach your shelves intact.
From a state-of-the-art tea bagging facility in suburban Colombo, we run export, private-label, bulk, and packaging programs side by side. That breadth lets us meet buyers wherever they are — a first trial pallet or a repeating container, a loose-leaf wholesale spec or a fully branded market-ready line.
Led by director Mr. K. A. Indika Sandaruwan, the team works as an extension of yours: responsive, documented, and committed to getting the details right, shipment after shipment.

Six regions

Ceylon's growing districts each lend their own character — from the delicate high-grown Nuwara Eliya to the bold low-country Ruhuna.
Dimbulla
High grown1,100–1,700 m
Refreshingly mellow
West-facing high country shaped by the monsoon; a clean, mellow, golden-orange cup with a refined finish.
Kandy
Mid grown600–1,200 m
Full-bodied
The cradle of Ceylon tea near the old royal capital — a strong, full-bodied, coppery cup with intense character.
Uda Pussellawa
High grown≈ 1,000–1,600 m
Exquisitely tangy
Neighbour to Nuwara Eliya, producing a rosy, tangy, medium cup that turns darker and richer in the dry season.
Uva
High grown1,100–1,700 m
Exotically aromatic
Eastern slopes dried by seasonal winds give Uva its famous mellow, exotic aroma and smooth, distinctive flavour.
Ruhuna
Low grown0–600 m
Distinctively unique
Southern low country yields a bold, dark, full-bodied cup with a long, robust finish prized in many export markets.
