I am Viraj Perera, Chairman/Managing Director of  Fine Teas (Pvt) Ltd., 505/3A Araliya Place, Udumulla Road, Battaramulla, Sri Lanka.

The Year 1999 brings me to 28 years in the

Tea Trade with experience gained in Sri Lanka, India, Kenya and the U.K.  Blending, Tasting and evaluating Tea has been my favourite and my deep desire is always to provide the consumer  'Cup'  he asks for.

Sri Lanka is the largest exporter of Tea to the world.   It is heartening to note that 99% of the Sri Lankan populaton start and ends the day with a cup of Tea because it has qualities to refresh the hearts and minds and acts as a catalyst.  Tea is most popular among the hardworking class of society both rich and poor as it soothes the tired nerves.  Tea is drunk both as hot and iced in its natural flavour or flavoured to customer requirments, for eg. Vanilla, Lemon, Ginger, Apple, Banana, Strawbery, etc.

Drinking Tea, one or more cups a day can reduce heart attack risks says the British researchers.  The US study conducted by the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston showed that people who had a cup or more of tea a day had a 44%  reduction in heart attack risk compared to non-tea drinkers.  Tea is said to contain  natural compound flavonoids which can neutralise the harmful chemical that damage cells and can lead to heart attacks, cancer, and blood clotting.  Flavonoids is a powerful Antioxidant that protects against chemicals in the body called free radicals that damage cells.  This Antioxidant prevents any damage of cells thereby protects the tea drinker from the diseases mentioned above.
