Connoisseur 80s
Quick Overview
Excellent strength and flavour, a more traditional connoisseur's style tea.
Product Description
Similar in many ways to our Kenyan Gold Teabags, our Connoisseur blend is sourced from the KTDA (Kenya Tea Development Agency), who are a group dedicted to the production of fine quality teas from smallholder farmers throughout Kenya. Each farmer becomes a shareholder in the factory they supply and therefore have a direct input into the management of the factory, whilst also sharing in its success. This arrangement drives a continuous improvement philosophy throughout the production process, ultimately resulting in the best quality green leaves being transformed into the best quality finished tea. Then, in addition, we have developed close links with a small number of the the best factories to produce our own grade of leaf which is then traditionally packed and delivered directly to Ringtons so that we can blend our Connoisseur tea.
