KTDA Purple Tea - High Grown

Purple tea is a very rare tea variety grown in the Mt. Kenya region. Purple tea has a very pleasant, sweet and yet woody flavor. The astringency of purple tea is considerably less than that of green and black tea because of the lower amount of tannin present. Purple tea itself has a dark color to it, however, its infusion is light, with a slight purplish tint. It tastes very much like green tea, with less astringency, bitterness, and caffeine content.
