From Camellia Sinensis

Here is a signature tea from Alexander Kay, producer of the Satemwa garden in Malawi.

These beautiful large leaves, processed following the judicious advice of Kevin, offer a bright and coppery liquor embellished with vegetal (nettle), fruit (pepper) and malty notes impeccably well defined. With great simplicity its sweet finish completes this everyday tea.

Almost through my entire purchase of this tea (50g) and must say that it met my expectations.

There is a nice balance between nutty flavor and spices. The tea isn’t bitter or dry, it’s smooth and has a palatable “black tea flavor”.

The only thing I dislike about the tea is that it can be fickle to get just right, or how I like it. If you like a strong tea, it’s easy to prepare it that way. I am cautious about the leaf/water ratio because sometimes I mess up and brew a cup that’s too bold for me. My main concern with this tea was the potential for bitterness/bland body but my fears were unfounded. It turned out to be a very nice black tea and comes with it’s own interesting terroir (Malawi) that sets it apart from other teas in my collection.
