New Giragama Tea factory & Restaurant

A pleasant place full of tea aroma. Every tea lover should definitely visit this place. Beautiful and kind guides who will guide you through the entire building and explain and show everything in detail. And it's all free, which surprised us a lot. At the end of the entire tour, you will be invited to a cup of local and, by the way, luxurious tea, which is again free of charge. As a souvenir, you can buy teas from the tea factory, and I am sure when I will drink a cup of this delicious tea at home, I will remember this great place.

I didn’t reserve and visited by bus from Kandy. Bus price was 80 and 15 minutes walk. When I arrived the factory, they were welcoming to do factory tour and it was private. Then I could ask many things and the guide gave me a time. Well explain and tea was good. Then I did shopping after tour. They were not force to buy. However I enjoy the tour and I bought some tea.

This tea factory is one of the oldest one. It was established by the Britishers. If you are a tea lover do visit this place and can try different flavours of tea and buy for your friends and family as well.

Awesome tea manufacturing plant that provide free tour plus explaination by the guide. Can learn alots here about the production of Sri Lanka tea & understand why it is taste so good. Must come here before buying any tea.

This large tea factory offers free guided tours and a tasting. It was extremely informative and interesting, facilitated by a lovely guide. The quality of tea is outstanding. It’s worth a visit.

You can buy fresh natural tea from here. And you can have a good dining experience and takeaway. From pharmacy you can buy whatever the medicine you want.

Last minute visit around 5pm and we were pleasantly surprised. We had a lovely guide take us around the factory and explain the entire process of how tea is made and showed us the machines live in action. The entire experience lasted around 30-45 minutes. Then we had the chance to try different black tea as they’re all different according to the leaf, and time and process it’s made. We loved the strongest black tea BOPF and the silver tea. They have a cafe upstairs with food and drinks, and lots of tea for sale. Plus a small shop outside and lots of parking. Very clean toilets and great toilets! Ps they even have a new modern machine that separates the tea according to the color of leafs. Some of the machines were almost 200 years old and working perfectly! It’s a must visit! Free entrance!

It was very interesting to see the production process with a very professional attitude and delicious tea

Best tea factory in kandy .very beautiful and clean one ..can buy good tea

I would like to mention that your staff were very friendly and the food is delicious.

Wonderfully maintained tea factory which offers guided factory tours mainly for tourists. Old but perfectly functioning machines are an amazing sight indeed. New building with good facilities. Factory tours are available in several languages to make it more convenient for foreigners.

Tea outlet is also with vast selection of Ceylon Tea with export quality.

You can see the whole production process and taste the results right after. Huge shop with variety of tea sorts. Excellent service, but overcrowded normally.

Nice tea and a nice tour - free tea no need to purchase anything if you don’t want to.

Colonial style reception hall, tasty food, fully operational tea factory and tea center. Highly recommended.

Excellent. This may be the only Tea Factory near Kandy on the colombo kandy Road. Explain the tea process to customers very well free of charge. Their tea is of high quality.
