about the tea
Thyolo Moto is a uniquely African version inspired by Lapsang Souchong tea from China. 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.
Ingredients
Black Loose-Leaf tea.

Brewing Instructions
Brew a 1.5 spoonful at 95°C / 203°F for 2-3 minutes.
