1867 was the year that Ceylon Coffee gave way to Ceylon Tea. Dilmah, known for its quality tea both here and abroad reunites the two popular beverages at Brew 1867 which now has a new home at Flower Road, Colombo 7, joining the many restaurants and cafes on this stretch.
The new café opened its doors last Saturday with Dilmah founder Merrill Fernando, his sons Dilhan and Malik, Dilhan’s wife Serena along with celebrity chef Peter Kuruwita also present.
Homemade salads, wraps, bagels, paninis, cakes, cookies, tea ice creams and much more are on the menu.
