Authentic Sri Lankan Tea Tasting Experience – Discovering the Flavors of Ceylon

This remarkable documentary, Gems of Ceylon, was produced in the 1960s by the Government Film Unit of Ceylon (Sri Lanka) and directed by Pragnasoma Hettiarachi. It beautifully illustrates how the island’s precious gems were more than treasures of the earth... they were woven into the nation’s identity, adorning the attire of kings and the jewelry of women, symbolizing both power and beauty.
