about the tea

In this African context, Satemwa harvests the tea by hand, lets it fully oxide, and finally is smoked with guava wood to give it its distinct smoky, wooden flavour. Certification and Cultivation: Conventional (pesticide-free, with herbicide use) Fair Trade, UTZ+ and Rain Forest Alliance Certified.
