Together with the state-of-the-art technology, the brand holds a formidable basis for an excellent end product.

“Our teas come from handpicked selection of tea estates in Sri Lanka, while packaging is done under the careful supervision of experienced tea professionals to ensure that you get the best quality Sri Lankan tea,” said Kasun Ranabahu, Director of Hendrick & Brothers Ltd. Succeeding his forefathers, Edward, the third generation veteran tea taster has accumulated 47 years of invaluable experience and incredible reputation.

“Our company’s humble beginnings run to colonial era Colombo, as Hendricks Mallikage started the first retail store at Prince Street. Much to his untiring efforts, Hendricks’s Tea became the highest share holder in the domestic tea market within 15 years of establishing the first retail store, surpassing Lipton and Brook Bond tea companies, which were considered as the tea giants during that era. We’re positive that we can repeat those historic accomplishments in modern times. For us, each Hendricks Tea outlet is a dream we want to bring alive. The appreciation and positive feedback that we have received with the opening of the Hendricks Tea outlet in Kiribathgoda is encouraging and motivates us to go the extra mile in delighting our tea patrons while preserving the Hendricks’s heritage,” he added.
