Start your journey off on the right foot, with this bold black tea from Tanzania. While the dry leaves bear the aroma of Sichuan peppercorns, the brew is malty and rich, a perfect accompaniment to your next expedition.
Tanzania is new on the scene of tea production relative to other giants, but they’re making a splash with this entry. Our Kilimanjaro Black is produced by a woman-owned and operated tea company based in Dar es Salaam, focusing on whole leaf artisanal teas. Callisto is proud to be one of the first to bring their delightful product to the US.
