Yes, you can definitely taste incredibly rare white tea, but only at specific estates. The Handunugoda Tea Estate, located near Ahangama on the south coast rather than the central hills, is globally famous for producing Virgin White Tea. Their guided tour is excellent, and it specifically includes a tasting session where you can sample this highly prized, delicate tea that is notoriously plucked without ever being touched by human hands to preserve its antioxidants.
