Description

This unique tea comes from the Satemwa Tea Estates along the slopes of the Shire Highlands in South East Africa. Malawi Black Treasure is made from an endemic Malawian varietal high in antioxidants and L-theanine, the Bvumbwe cultivar. Satemwa was founded in 1923 and is currently the last family-owned and operated tea garden in Malawi. All tea from these estates is hand-picked and produced in small batches. Tasting different Satemwa teas will give you a great insight into the typical Malawian terroir.
