Ceylon Tea Wine will soon hit the shelves of global markets with the Tea Research Institute (TRI) calling for an Expression of Interest (EoI) to kick off the manufacturing process of the value-added product.
Interested parties should put forward their applications to the Ministry of Plantations on or before 30 January 2022.
The TRI has been successful in getting the process for the preparation of tea wine patented and is branded under the banner ‘Ceylon Tea Wine’.
Celyon Tea Wine is a dry red wine that contains 12 percent (v/v) alcohol. According to the TRI, the wine is “rich and has a unique taste with medium body and soft tannins carrying a pronounced tea aroma with the sweet smell of delicate back tea”.
