A versatile tea that's enjoyable both iced and hot.

Kenyan Kosabei is a TGFOP grade black tea produced in the Kenya highlands at the Kosabei Estate that is located at an elevation of approximately 5,000 feet. The Kosabei Estate is regarded as one of the finest tea estates in Kenya.

Hot Tea: We recommend this tea for people who enjoy breakfast teas on the lighter side. If you enjoy a light-body English Breakfast or our Ceylon Kenilworth, we suggest trying this orange pekoe tea, too.

That first cup hit just right — the briskness is exactly what I wanted, bright and clean with that delicate astringency that doesn't linger too long. It's a solid light-to-medium body that's easy to drink all morning without feeling heavy.

Brewed this up this morning and the brightness really woke me up—exactly the brisk kick I want from a Kenyan tea. The light body makes it easy to drink without milk, and the delicate astringency leaves a clean finish. Already added it to my weekly rotation.

The astringency is present but refined, making it a great morning cup that doesn't turn bitter if you're not watching the clock. I brewed mine for three minutes and got that clean, refreshing kick that cuts right through the sleep.
