Kenyan Tea

4.8
Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars
414 Reviews
Only a tiny amount of Kenyan tea meets our rolled whole leaves standard. East of the Rift Valley is where you find it. Cooler conditions and higher elevations are ideal for the rich, honeysuckle notes to develop. It takes milk really well too. So give it a glug if that's your preference.
Strong & Toasty
Perfectly paired with a freshly baked cookie. Stem ginger and triple chocolate are both winners.

400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on.

Brewing Tip

Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.
Ingredients

Ingredients

Kenyan Black Tea

Origins

We've gone East of the Rift Valley where the small holders grow some of the nicest rolled whole leaves you can find. Cooler conditions and higher elevations are ideal to let the rich, honeysuckle notes develop. This one is an amazing everyday tea. Strong, toasty and it takes milk really well. Give it a good glug if that's how you like it.

    Kenyan tea

    Got the 500g box, nicely presented. Took a little bit of tinkering to get the tastes right for me as is on the stronger side of a normal breakfast tea but tastes great black or with a dash of milk.

    Sounds like you’ve cracked your perfect Kenyan brew! 😊 Black or dash of milk though... Which one won?

    Good quality tea leaves.

    The quality of this tea is very good. However, it's a little to weak for my personal taste. If you prefer a weaker brew but with a nice flavour then by all means give it a try.

    The two stars is a reflection of my personal opinion on it's strength, not the quality of the product.

    Thanks for your feedback, Cliff! 😊 I'm glad the quality still came through, even if it didn’t quite have enough oomph for you. Sounds like we need to point you towards one of our punchier brews next time.
    What’s your usual go-to when you fancy a proper strong brew?
    Cheers,

    Brilliant tea

    This Kenyan tea is genuinely the best tea I've ever tasted. I have it black with one sugar.

    Lovely rounded brew

    We now prefer this to the English Breakfast (also fab). This has a lovely rounded taste without being bitter, don't brew for too long.

    Hey Rich, I am thrilled to hear Kenyan has stolen the top spot, especially with such strong competition from our English Breakfast ;-)

    Happy brewing,

    Clean, bright brew

    This is a lovely fresh tasting black tea, less astringent than most and ideal for drinking without milk. (And other people tell me it’s great with a splash of milk too).

    Hi Susan,

    Thank you for the feedback. Our whole leaves make for a less astringent brew. Nice and clean with no bitterness or dust.
