Cultivated at the Monte Metilile Estate on the lower slopes of Mount Namuli, this organic loose leaf black tea selection from Mozambique yields a velvety smooth, dark amber liquor that is rich and full-bodied. A warm toasty aroma and dark sugar sweetness contribute to a satisfying cup with a substantial mouth feel and lingering finish.
