Dimbula Single Estate Black Tea from Dilmah Tea is a premium Ceylon black tea sourced from a single estate in Sri Lanka’s celebrated Dimbula tea-growing region, an area internationally known for producing elegant high-grown teas with brightness and refined character. As part of Dilmah’s single estate collection, this tea reflects the company’s philosophy of showcasing the distinct terroir of individual tea gardens rather than blended regional profiles.

Grown in the cool central highlands of Sri Lanka, Dimbula teas are particularly valued for their crisp, clean cup and balanced structure. This black tea typically produces a bright amber to copper-colored liquor with a smooth body and layered notes of citrus, gentle malt, floral nuances, and a fresh brisk finish.

Compared with stronger Assam-style black teas, Dimbula expressions are generally lighter, more aromatic, and more delicate in structure. As a single estate tea, it offers a more transparent expression of origin, highlighting the environmental conditions and craftsmanship of a specific plantation.

Dilmah, founded by Merrill J. Fernando, is known for maintaining control from source to packaging, emphasizing authenticity and unblended Ceylon tea character.
