Frotoft Tea Estate, nestled in Sri Lanka’s Central Highlands above Ramboda village, is renowned as one of the country’s most scenic tea plantations. Perched at elevations between 1,400 and 1,700 meters, it overlooks the breathtaking Kotmale Valley, offering unparalleled vistas from its viewpoint. Established in 1883 and named after a Scottish farmland, the estate spans rugged terrain accessible only by bumpy dirt roads, ideal for jeeps or tuktuks. Managed by Damro Tea, Frotoft produces high-quality small leaf teas, including Broken Orange Pekoe and Fannings, favored in Chinese and Japanese markets, thanks to its misty climate and dual monsoon rains. Its remote charm and proximity to the Chariot Path hiking trail make it a hidden gem for adventurers.
