Full-speed ahead

Excellent, straightforward, early morning eye-opening black tea. Not at all bitter, but strong and full-flavored, tea with a capital 'T'. If I am looking for a little more juice in the morning I add a bit to my golden chai. If I am a bit sleepy after lunch a cup of this perks me right up. This is now on my regular re-order list.

Fantastic at second brew

Thanks to the instructions included with the tea, I learnt to love the second brew of this tea especially. It is very mild while still giving you a burst of energy.

My new go-to black tea!

Gorgeous and fresh tasting tea, this has definitely become the standard against which I will judge all black teas!

Tasting Notes

Deep, rich and malty, it has notes of caramel and burnt sugar. Delicious black, becoming sweet and chocolatey with the addition of milk.

Quantity

Use 0.09oz of leaf per 5.1fl oz of water (2.5g per 150ml).

Temperature

For the optimum infusion use 185°F (85°C) water. If you like milk, please use water at 212°F (100°C).

Time

Infuse for 1 - 2 minutes, tasting regularly.

Infusion

You can infuse this tea at least twice. With each careful infusion, different subtleties of flavour are revealed.

Cost Per Cup

22¢ per cup based on 0.09oz of leaf per 5.1fl oz of water and 2 infusions.

Malawi

The Satemwa Tea Estate

Grown and lovingly made on a farm called Satemwa on Thyolo Mountain in the Shire Highlands of Malawi. Satemwa is the oldest tea estate in Malawi, still run by the same family - Alex is the 3rd generation Kay to look after the garden.

DEPTH

3D tea

This is not a modern industrial blend churned out by vast machines. Lost Malawi is an old fashioned tea crafted in small batches with great care. It has a depth and quality almost forgotten. To compare this to an ordinary tea would be like comparing a line-drawing with a sculpture. This is like drinking normal tea but in 3D.

Seasonal

Single Estate Varietals

Like all good crops the leaf is seasonal - picked only when the tea bush is at is best. The tea is blended from different varietals and harvests across the estate to build great depth of flavour and rich complexity. Lost Malawi is the perfect breakfast or afternoon Tea. Delicious with milk and sugar, it is also wonderful on its own. It goes splendidly with eggs and bacon and clotted cream and scones.
