Ceylon Grown Mazawattee Parasol
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative late 19th century photograph, a lady elegantly dressed in Victorian attire, complete with a parasol, takes a moment to enjoy a cup of tea under the dappled shade of a tree. The serene setting, with its lush greenery and gentle breeze, transports us back in time to a simpler era. The tea she holds in her hands is none other than Mazawattee Tea, a brand that was synonymous with fine Ceylon tea during this period. Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, was a major producer of tea during the 19th century, and Mazawattee Tea Company was one of the leading exporters from the region. The history of Mazawattee Tea is deeply intertwined with the history of Ceylon tea production. The company was founded in 1872 by a group of British entrepreneurs who recognized the potential of the rich, fertile soil and favorable climate of Ceylon for tea cultivation. They established tea plantations and processing facilities, and Mazawattee Tea quickly gained a reputation for producing high-quality tea. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the tea-drinking culture of the time, which was an essential part of daily life for many people in Europe and North America. The lady's refined posture and tranquil expression convey the pleasure and relaxation that came with sipping a cup of Mazawattee Tea. The parasol shields her from the sun, adding to the sense of leisure and indulgence. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the rich history of tea production in Ceylon and the enduring appeal of a simple cup of tea. Today, Mazawattee Tea may no longer be the household name it once was, but the legacy of Ceylon tea continues to thrive, with its distinctive flavor and aroma enjoyed by tea lovers around the world.
