Smooth but energetic, like the languid stretch of a Big Cat. Spice notes yield a mulled fruit character, with a touch of honey in the finish. A tea for savoring the morning, before turning your hand to what inspires you.
These leaves are grown in Kenya, in the Great Rift Valley. Long a producer of crushed leaves for tea bags, a renewed interest in whole leaf tea has swept the region, with many striking new teas as a result.
