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.

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!

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.

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 my favorite tea. It's very delicious

Gold Crown Beverages’ Kericho Gold Pure Kenya Tea in tea bags is my favorite. I make 1.5 L of that tea in my Breville Tea Maker by putting five tea bags in it’s basket infuser. I decided to try the whole leaf tea. It tasted bad. The claim of whole leaf is wrong. This tea contains large bits, medium-size bits, and small bits of tea leaves. The small-size and some medium-size bits pass right through the Breville Tea Maker’s infuser giving me undrinkable tea with suspended tea leaf bits. I switched to manual brewing using an infuser with small openings. The small-size bits passed through the infuser giving me tea with suspended small-sized bits. The suspended small-bits-only tea still makes the “whole leaf tea” undrinkable. You can’t get a refund on tea, so I wasted $15.

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

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!
