Lover's Leap is one of the most well regarded tea gardens in Sri Lanka. During its peak season (Feb/Mar) this estate production is characterized by a delightful flavour that is astringent and lively. The best weather for producing quality teas - cool nights, dry weather and bright sunny days - are all in abundance here. These conditions force the tea bush to expend all its energies on the new-growth leaves, giving the tea its best flavour. During February and March, cool, moisture-laden northeast monsoon winds travel across the Bay of Bengal to Sri Lanka. The winds rise as they cross the central highlands of the island; as the air rises it cools and the moisture condenses giving rise to very wet conditions on the east side of the central divide but with dry and cool conditions on the western side. Not surprisingly the western tea estates peak in quality during this time.
