At AMBA, our cows are more than just part of the farm,they are family. πŸ„πŸŒΏβœ¨

​Today, we celebrate Mattu Pongal, a special day dedicated to honoring and thanking the cattle who work alongside us. From providing organic fertilizer for our tea bushes to being a gentle presence in our highlands, they are vital to the life and soul of our estate.

​We’ve spent the morning grooming, decorating, and offering treats to our beloved rescue herd to show our deep appreciation for their hard work and companionship. 🍎🌾
​Wishing you a day filled with the same abundance and harmony that our animals bring to us every day.

Happy Mattu Pongal! β˜€οΈπŸ™πŸ₯£

Our Story

Amba Estate is a working organic farm in the Uva Highlands of Sri Lanka. The farm is approximately 30 minutes drive from Ella, perched in a small valley above the Ravana-Ella Waterfalls, with views of Ella Rock and Lipton's Seat. We produce a range of artisanal teas, coffees, spices and preserves, and we work with the local community to support a variety of educational, economic and environmental initiatives. We offer guests the opportunity to stay in the old tea-bungalows on the estate, learn more about organic farming and artisanal tea-making, and enjoy our little corner of paradise.

We also offer tours of our organic farm and our artisanal tea and coffee production every day at 11am. The tour itself is free, and you can also do an optional tea tasting after the tour for Rs.600 per person.

PLEASE NOTE: with the lifting of local travel restrictions, AMBA is open again! However, we will be limiting numbers on the daily tea tour to maintain social distancing precautions. Please call +94 57 357 5489 or email [email protected], if you would like to book a spot on the daily tour at 11am.
