Kenyan Purple Tea - Purple Tea
3 oz Gift Tin comes wrapped
Purple Leaf Tea is a cultivar of Camellia Sinensis (species) Assamica (varietal). It is called Purple Tea is because the bushes grow purple leaves in Kenyan tea gardens. This is not a gmo plant; it is completely natural and part of the tea family.
Purple tea has a pleasant, juniper berry and lite floral flavor. Some have said it has both black and green tea characteristics. We found it to taste very much like an oolong tea, with no-astringency and no tannin bitterness - and free of grassy or vegetal tea taste.
It's also very high in anthocyanins, the beneficial compounds found in blueberries, eggplant, purple grapes and other blue, purple or dark red foods.
Purple tea is low in caffeine (less than green tea, slightly more than white tea).p
