At this week’s ex-estate tea auction held yesterday, an invoice of PF1 of Carolina Estate, Watawala secured an all-time Colombo tea auction record price of Rs.560. This tea was purchased by Uniworld Teas (Pvt.) Ltd, a leading buyer of both liquoring high growns as well as low grown teas and was sold through the catalogue of Lanka Commodity Brokers Ltd. Carolina Factory produces some of the best Ceylon CTC medium grown teas and following the recent improvements made in the factory with the installation of the latest CTC machines, the Carolina mark has emerged as a top-selling CTC tea in the past several auctions. Estate Manager Prasanna Premachandra maintains that success has not only come with the machinery improvements but also with the best practices in agriculture that are implemented, which ensure a high standard of green leaf. This estate is managed by Watawala Plantations PLC and is a market leader in terms of product quality for medium grown CTC teas.
