A rare and wonderful orthodox tea from Kenya... Now aged 111 Arthur Njuguna Komo planted his tea estate over fifty years ago on naturally fertile soils at an altitude of 6700 ft in Gatundu District, amongst the foothills of Mount Kenya, alongside the Rundu and Mukengeria rivers. Whilst continuing to play an active role in ensuring the quality of his tea and furthering the enlightened approach to employment which he pioneered, it is now run by his grandaughter, Joy. This orthodox, large leaf tea is neatly twisted and has a lovely appley and caramel aroma. In the cup it is deep bronze. It is full bodied, rich and smooth with a certain sweetness. Brew for four minutes. It may be drunk with milk.

One of the best new teas I've tried! I allowed mine to brew for about 5mins. Lovely deep brew, it tasted not unlike an excellent Assam. Good malty taste, not quite the same deep aroma as an assam. Will be buing lots more. Jim Hudson - Bristol
