Nestled in Colombo’s historic Maligawatte area, just minutes from the bustling heart of the Fort area, the Ceylon Tea & Cinnamon Experience Centre is more than just a gallery; it is a gateway to the stories, voices, and textures that shape our communities. Genesis was the original location where the world-famous Dilmah Tea was first packed and shipped in 1985.
Learn about the colourful history of Ceylon tea and cinnamon that are still renowned for their unmatched quality, while enjoying their fragrant scents and rich tastes.
