"At The Mel's Tea Academy,
We learned about the history of black tea, tea manufacturing methods, varieties, etc. I also learned more about the work of people involved in the Sri Lankan tea industry.
I felt that the experience of tasting with Mr. Niraj and gaining a better understanding of the characteristics of the grade and production area was very valuable.
During the visit to the tea estate, I could take a tour for the CIR activities carried out by the plantation company. By taking this course, I could learn more about the world of black tea, so I would like to spread this knowledge in Japan and develop better products." - Mana Suda - (Mitsui Norin Company Ltd Japan)

"In the world of tea, education is the art of unlocking the mysteries hidden in each cup."
