Kericho Gold Black Loose Leaf Tea - Rich in Antioxidants - Orange Pekoe Tea - Kenya Origin - Unique Flavor - 500g

Been using this for years. Makes a GREAT cup of English breakfast type tea (with milk). Nice and strong, good color and taste. Better than Typhoo, Twinings, or PG Tips. I like Taylor's Yorkshire Gold and Red almost as well, but not quite as much as the Kericho.

This is my favorite tea. It's very delicious

She liked it,(it wasn’t my cup of tea lol). Seemed like a quality tea! Good size container smelled fresh when I opened the bag.

Not a good tea picture is misleading

I have been familiar with Kericho Gold black loose tea since past 35 years, and I loved it from the very start, because of its heavenly aroma, colour, and flavour. However, sad to state that the one bought from Amazon for some reason has disappointed me- the quality of the product has deteriorated to a great degree. That wonderful aroma is missing, and the flavour compromised !

This is absolutely the best black tea I have ever had! I picked up some in Kenya last year, and was pleased to find that I could purchase it on Amazon (albeit MUCH more expensive than buying it in Kenya). If you like full-bodied tea, bursting with flavor, this is the tea for you. Does not take very much at all to make a very strong cup of tea, so this package will last a LONG time. The package I purchased in Kenya was half the size, and lasted about 5 months. I was pleased to find the larger package sold by Amazon has two separate foil packages, so freshness is ensured. I did have to purchase special sieve-like tea infusers with extra tiny holes to steep this tea in, as it is extra fine. Here is what I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07K73LVVC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It took a little while to come in, but was worth the wait. It’s a delicious and strong tea. It tastes like a refined Kenyan the tea is formed into small balls similar to an Assam. I find 1tsp per 8oz with a 4 minute steep to be good though a 3:30 steep would cut down on the bitterness if you prefer a lighter tea. Seems to be high in caffeine, but that’s a very subjective measure and there are no actual measurements. If you like their bagged tea and want something a bit more refined this is a good pick. Make sure you have a bag or tin to put the tea in. It came in 2 foil packages that are not resealable. Remember- tea is light sensitive. I hope you enjoy if you get it!

Excellent tea! Although not graded, this looks like a BOP which is meant to be brewed strong and balanced with milk. If you want to drink tea without milk, then you want a whole leaf tea. I am Sri Lankan and we love our Ceylon tea, but this is just as amazing!

I love the product. That cup of thee is my everything. I look forward to that moment everyday.

Very surprised how good this tasted for a CTC tea. The picture is deceiving as it show full size leaves but it is definitely small granules like one reviewer said. You get a lot of tea for the price. It's not gourmet but i'd compare it to Yorkshire Red loose tea which I drink a lot. It's strong but not too strong and It's not bitter. Steeped for full 5 mins. I am quite picky with my teas. I've tried Vahdam black teas and they were good but for the price I probably wouldn't buy again (except for the Himalayan Green, that one is delicious but another category). I find Twinnings good but too weak. Yorkshire gold is good also but quickly gets almost too strong and a bit bitter. Overall i'd says this is a steal for for the price....on sale for $7.99 CAD.

My favourite tea. We lived in Kenya for a few years and always drank this brand. I’m so pleased to have found it here. It’s really strong so a little goes a long way....good job for the price!!

My wife is Kenyan and really loves this tea. I surprised her with this purchase and now she doesn’t want any other tea anymore.

Rich full-bodied flavour. To make a single cup you need but a 1/4 teaspoon of the tea - yum!
