We are so excited to introduce our first-ever tea from Malawi. Grown on a third generation, family-owned garden in the Shire Highlands, these exceptional little pearls are a true labour of love. Each leaf is hand-plucked and rolled by an amazing team of 15 tea-crafting local women. It steeps a beautiful bright yellow, with the mild aroma of artichoke and a light, buttery taste with natural citrus and vegetal notes. To get the most out of these gems, try drinking them over multiple steeps, or “gong fu” style. As the leaves unfurl with each steep, each cup is a totally new experience.
