Dear Mr. Fernando, Happy 90th Birthday! To celebrate this and your 70 year devotion to tea I’ve made you the first drink I ever created for you, the Dilmah Blazer. You have been an inspiration to me personally, through the great things you’ve achieved but also through the smallest gestures you’ve made and the attention you have for everyone. You are a once-in-a-lifetime person and I’m truly grateful to have met you. Save me some cake, because as soon as this crisis has passed I’m coming over to fix you the blazer. Warmest Regards,
