Thank you Apoorwa for a lovely tea tasting!

We had such an amazing tea making tour and tasting with Apoorwa! She gave us so much information about Sri Lankan tea and took us through each tea, how it’s made and then we got to taste all of them with delicious treats. Thank you so much Apoorwa for a great experience!

Informative, fun and hands on, authentic experience

The best experience, authentic tea farm. It was nice to see the entire process start to finish, and actually drink at the end your picked product. Lots of delicious food, 6 or 7 types of tea including white tea which was a first.

Pick your own tea leaves, then make tea with your own harvest!

Local, family run. Very informative, friendly and fun. A lovely experience. Would recommend to any couple, family or solo traveller. The Sri Lankan snacks were a great bonus.

Very nice Workshop!

Very nice tour and we had a lot of fun harvesting and making our own tea in the workshop. Fazil was really nice and teached us all about tea and the process of making it. Definitely worth a visit!

Fantastic journey from tea’s beginnings to tasting in a lovely location with a helpful guide

Brilliant tour taking you on whole journey of tea making from picking, drying, fermenting, making and tasting. It is a excellent explanation of tea, my favourite drink.

We were 21 people - not a maximum of 12!!!

Exactly what I was looking for. Picking tea leaves, learning the manufacturing process and tasting tea. It was very informative.

3 experiences in 1 -...

3 experiences in 1 - picking, production and tasting, which was great value for money. The man running the tasting was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We also had a tray of snacks in the tasting and a free gift of black tea to takeaway. Lost a star as we started and ended 20/30mins late, and went to the wrong address as it wasn’t listed clearly on the app.

interactive explanation of tea and tea tasting with delicacies

Nice little tea plantation, where you get a nice explanation about tea: black, white or green. You can also pick yourself in the field. Afterwards tasting of various teas together with tasty sweets!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🌿 We’re happy you enjoyed learning about the differences between black, white, and green tea and also had fun picking tea leaves in the field yourself. The tasting session with our homemade treats is always a special moment, so we’re glad you liked it! We hope to welcome you again at Organic Tea Queen – Ella for another relaxing tea experience 🍃☕

Amazing tea tasting experience at Organic Queen Tea, Ella. We had a truly wonderful tea tasting hosted by the delightful Fazil Lee, who made the whole experience feel special, engaging, and memorable. Even as someone who isn’t normally a tea drinker, I absolutely loved it and was surprised by how much I enjoyed the teas. The tasting was paired with delicious snacks, which complemented the teas perfectly, and we learned so much about tea — from how it’s grown to how different varieties are produced. I especially loved the “champagne of the tea world”, the White Tip — exceptional. We wished we’d had time to do the full tour, as the surroundings are beautiful and there’s amazing wildlife in the area as well. A big thank you to Fazil Lee and all the staff for such a warm welcome and a memorable tea tasting experience. Highly recommended.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted you enjoyed the tea tasting and that Fazil made the experience engaging and memorable 🌿 He will be very happy to read your kind words. It’s always special to hear that even non tea drinkers discover a love for tea during the session, especially when tasting our White Tip 🍃 We’re also glad you enjoyed the snack pairing and learning about the journey from plant to cup. Next time we hope you can join the full tour and explore the surroundings and wildlife as well. Thank you again for the recommendation and for visiting us! - Organic Tea Queen Ella ☕
