Description

This is the original pure purple tea from the Nandi Hills region of Kenya. Its purple color is a result of an antioxidant known as anthocyanin, which is also found in blueberries and red cabbage. Purple tea is processed lightly like a green tea. Sweet and mildly fruity, our Purple Tea is imported fresh from the farm. Learn more about purple tea.

4.5 stars really... rounding up... BUT, buying again! :)

I like this one a lot. I've tried ONE other Kenyan tea previously but it was harsh-tasting-- almost bitter. Consequently, I went with 180/2 the first time around. Next time I made a cup, I tried 180/3 which works equally as well as far as taste. To me this tea has a light mineral taste, not unlike a rock oolong from the Wuyi area of China. Very nice. AND, I love that it's low caff. I don't have enough actual Camellia sinensis in the low caff category-- more herbals/tisanes and a few select white teas.

Warm and relaxing!

This purple tea has great nutty and chocolate flavors! Slightly more vegtable than floral. The only reason I'm not rating this a 5, is that the flavor was a bit weak and requires a bit more leaf than I would use on average.

Woodsy

Thought that I would really like this tea, but it lefty me a little flat. Strong woodsy taste and not much else. Was expecting something more.
