• The roots of Sri Lankas tea industry began,
  oddly with coffee. It was the 1870s and a disease
  known as coffee rust was gradually wiping out
  all the countrys coffee plantations. Leaving
  growers with two choices either abandon their
  business, or follow the lead of a Scottish man
  named James Taylor. Considered a pioneer of the
  Sri Lankan tea industry.

Taylor had a few years earlier planted seven
hectares of tea in Kandy,
5
in the centre of the island, and was having
success with its production, many people got on
board, including the man credited with
commercialising Sri Lankan tea, a fellow Scotsman
the entrepreneur Sir Thomas Lipton.

• From those first few trees has grown an industry
  worth more than USS1.6 billion, and today, the
  island once known as Ceylon as it was called
  under British rule until 1972 is the fourth
  largest producer of tea in the world, Many years
  may have passed since Taylor first started out in
  tea, but his legacy continues to leave a stamp on
  Sri Lankas landscape.
