The Lion Logo - Symbol Of Quality
The Ceylon Tea Symbol of Quality, better known as the Lion Logo, is a stamp of approval that certifies tea manufacturers to be meeting the high standards set by the Ceylon Tea Board of Sri Lanka. The Logo is owned by the Sri Lanka Tea Board and globally trademarked. The presence of the Lion Logo on your pack of Basilur tea is a guarantee that you are drinking a cup of 100% Pure Ceylon Tea packed in Sri Lanka.
The Sri Lanka Tea Board has a special Tea Tasting unit that is in charge of the Lion Logo. This unit is responsible together with the analytical laboratory for assessing the quality of Ceylon Tea prior to the auction and export. In order for a tea manufacturer to be able to use the Lion logo they should not just meet specific legal requirements but should also pass strict quality tests and standards. The unit’s stamp of approval is essential for any tea, packed or branded in Sri Lanka, that carries the Lion Logo.
The presence of the Lion Logo on every pack of Basilur Tea guarantees that;
– The pack contains 100% pure Ceylon Tea.
– The tea is packed in Sri Lanka. Overseas Importers and packers are not allowed to use the Lion Logo on their tea packs even if the packs contain pure Ceylon Tea.
– Basilur meets the strict quality standards set out by the Sri Lanka Tea Board.
