"Kenya varietal tea - a first for me. The falvour is overwhelmingly that of baked, slightly caramelised apple, or pasteurised/UHT sweet apple juice. For me, it makes a nice breakfast tea - it seems to fit well with cereal and milk."

"Product: All teas i have tried from this site have been of good quality, in fact the choice is somewhat overwhelming. However Kenya orthodox tea TGFOP1is my tea of choice. I'm no expert but it seems to me this tea is what I regard as a traditional tasting tea similar to tea that I enjoyed over 50 years ago (but better). The reason I like it is it has a good strength and body but also with a certain delicacy and nice clean taste. A thoroughly enjoyable compromise.
