Udupussellawa
On the fringe of Uva and leading on to Nuwara Eliya is the Uda
Pussallawa mountain range. It experiences the same North-East Monsoon as
Uva. Two planting districts account for the tea produced. Unlike Uva,
Uda Pussallawa enjoys two periods of superior quality. The traditional
eastern quality season is from July to September, will be its peak
period. But the conditions will brighten up during the western quality
seasonin the first quarter of the year.Plantations in upper Uda
Pussallawa closer to Nuwara Eliya gain the of dry cold conditions that
bring about a range of rosy teas.
Main Sub-Districts

The area is located on the eastern edge of Nuwara Eliya, at the
gateway to Uda Pussallawa. The teas are as delicate as its neighbour’s,
but retain the subtle character whilest gaining more body.

are of medium body and rosy character, which is maintained throughout
the year.
