Description

Bvumbe Handmade Treasure is a fine tea from tea maker Alexander Kay’s Satemwa Estate in Malawi. A relatively lightly oxidized black tea, this tea is full-bodied, smooth with aromatic notes of roasted peaches, wood, and a bit of wintergreen freshness. It’s got some nice complexity, but also pairs well with a food. Overall, it’s a comfortable, clean cup – a great candidate for your new favorite morning tea.
