Black Tea with Apple & Spice

Fresh black tea from the high altitude ridgelines of Kapchorua combine with the rich aroma of apple and spice to give a sweet fragrant taste that lingers on the tongue

Our Teas

Each of our teas is grown on just a single one of our Kenyan farms, capturing the individual characterics of the farm, microclimate and soil type. With bright, brisk liquors to smooth and comforting infusions we have a tea to suit all tastes.


Bush to Cup Transparency

As Tea farmers we think everyone should know the origins of their teas, how they’re grown, how they’re produced and how the people that grow them are treated, offering complete transparency from Bush to Cup.

All of our teas are from our own farms, something totally unique and offering complete traceability through every aspect. There is no blending from different sources, no increased carbon footprint transporting teas from around the world, just naturally grown, pesticide free teas straight from our bushes to your cup.

With the help of our Williamson Tea Foundation and our work with the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, everyone who has a cup of Williamson tea can tangibly feel that they are making a difference to ensure future generations can enjoy wild forests, fertile soils, elephants and truly sustainable tea.


Growing Tea & The Farms

Tea is a natural, living product that changes with the seasons and should taste of where it is grown, the soils it has been cultivated on and season it has been picked in.


Our teas are grown sustainably on the rich red ochre soils of our Kenyan farms whose regional microclimates impart specific tastes, colours and textures, from the brisk, bright Kenyan Earth grown on Kapchorua, to the soothing green teas of Tinderet.

Each of our farms has a different story and produces uniquely different teas. It is this depth of knowledge of our farms and teas that we grow that enables us to produce the perfect cup time and time again.


About Our Farms

Our farms are located in the heart of the Kenyan highlands. Here the climate is ideally suited to tea production; rich fertile soils, regular rainfall, a warming sun and pest free. As guardians of the land we are passionate about ensuring that future generations can enjoy these beautiful landscapes and natural habitats, all of our farms are managed holistically with the rhythms of nature.



Kapchorua

Lying on the Eastern slopes of the Nandi hills, Kapchorua is our highest altitude farm at close to 7,000 feet above sea level and is bordered by a steep escarpment overlooking the tea fields adding an invigorating freshness to the air. The dark reddish soils of the valley and slow growth of the tea bushes as a result of the altitude impart a bright edge to the colour of the teas and a strong sculpted taste.

OUR HIGH ALTITUDE FARM

SOILS

Dusty red ‘Kenyan Earth’ soils with a rich topsoil lying on top of igneous rocks.

CLIMATE

Equatorial with fresh light mornings and afternoon rainstorms that hug the high ridgelines.

FLORA & FAUNA

Bateleur Eagles, Sacred Ibis, Africa Mocker Swallowtail Butterflies and Wetland Orchids.
