Learn how the international ISO 3720 standard tests Ceylon Black Tea to guarantee 100% purity, rich flavor, and zero fillers.
The global gold standard for pure black tea — ensuring rich natural flavor, tender leaf content, low moisture, and zero artificial fillers for every Ceylon tea export.
Laboratory tests required by the Sri Lanka Tea Board and international customs for all export-grade pure black tea.
Ensures rich natural antioxidants and full flavor in every brewed cup.
Measures natural tea plant minerals, proving zero dust or dirt contamination.
Verifies tea leaf freshness and proves no old or spent leaves are used.
Guarantees zero sand or environmental soil particles in the tea.
Ensures tea is made from tender young leaves rather than coarse wooden stalks.
Keeps the tea crisp and fresh, preventing any mold growth during shipping.
Following ISO 3720 standards is the foundation of Ceylon tea quality. Created by the International Organization for Standardization, ISO 3720 defines the clear benchmarks that separate real black tea from low-quality substitutes.
By testing every batch before auction sale, Sri Lanka maintains an unmatched global reputation for purity. Importers can present these official Certificates of Analysis directly to customs and food safety authorities worldwide.
