For centuries, problems of mankind have been solved over a cup of tea whether they were

problems between nations, amongst businesses, even in

families, between husbands and wives, tea has been the

soothing balm that helped their solution. The simple act of pouring a cup of tea is, in itself, an ice-breaker,

providing pleasurable anticipation of the goodness

that is to follow. I have dedicated my life towards

providing that cup: not only to solve problems but to

add sunshine, to our day, with every sip of Dilmah.

The Story Behind Your Cup of TeaThere is an amazing story behind your cup of Dilmah Tea. It is a tale that unfolds each day on Dilmah Tea gardens around Sri Lanka. It begins with the blessing of nature upon Ceylon Tea – the natural alchemy of climate and soils that produces the world’s finest tea. It develops from there, weaving through the lives of the tea pickers and their families, through the village communities around our island, through the forests and waters around Sri Lanka, and reaching its climax in your cup of tea.

Dilmah was born of a simple tea grower’s vision. Merrill J. Fernando’s desire to share the pleasure in tea with the world, and to do so ethically by benefiting workers in the exploited tea industry, was the genesis of Dilmah Tea. Nearly four decades of struggle that Merrill invested in making his dream a reality, were rewarded with an unexpectedly powerful welcome from tea drinkers around the world.

Dilmah has grown from the impossible dream of an ordinary Sri Lankan to a brand that is enjoyed in over 100 countries around the world. Dilmah is recognized as one of the top 10 tea brands in the world. These are not the definitions of success that Merrill J. Fernando and his family seek for Dilmah though.

Merrill fulfilled his pledge to making his Dilmah a genuinely ethical business with the establishment of his charitable foundation – the MJF Foundation. That commitment to ethics was set at the heart of Merrill’s business in the 1960s, long before Corporate Social Responsibility became the buzzword that it is today. Within that commitment lies a very powerful philosophy – that of making business a matter of human service.

In seeing success as something beyond its conventional, commercial definition, Merrill demonstrated a powerful truth. He showed how relevant the often discarded traditional, family values are in present context. By placing integrity – as much in relation to his customers, in the quality of Dilmah Tea as to the workers and environment that help make Dilmah special - at the heart of his business, he offered a potent solution to many of the problems our world faces today.

Spa Tea Mixology

Tea Mixology is the art of respectfully combining nature’s most indulgent herbal beverage, with other ingredients to produce tea inspired cocktails, mocktails and shooters. Mixing different ingredients to produce harmony on the palate is an art in itself.

In this instance the harmony lends itself to an exquisite experience where a tea mocktail can complement or create a mood. For this reason a spa experience is even more enhanced when matched with a tea based beverage as the natural goodness of the tea and the soothing calm it produces only further heightens the sensorial experience.

As a family with a commitment to tea that is defined by Dilmah Founder Merrill J. Fernando’s lifelong dedication to the herb, we present a selection of tea inspired beverages which interpret this traditional herb in a unique form. Spa Tea Mixology features tea based non-alcoholic beverages created to offer a complete spa experience. Tea and the heritage and terroir that real tea shares with one who appreciates tea, are the essence of indulgence in this ancient herbal beverage. Whilst respecting that heritage and terroir, the combination of tea with other drinks and ingredients to produce a pleasurable result is the objective of this book.

May the natural goodness in tea, its inspiring taste, flavour and aroma be as much a source of goodness, solace, friendship and pleasure to you as it has been to us.
