This tea is a heavier hitter than many of those on the market in Malawi which tend to be lighter and more darjeeling-esque. Satemwa gains a dark colour within moments of brewing. A very tannic tea that will delight those who like their tea with a punch, or with a good dollop of milk.

I could have sworn a caught a slight
floral taste in this tea but I'm not sure, it may have been caused by
using the same cup to drink from as my Guan Yin....
The second brew i let steep for a very
short time (20 secs maybe) but it brought out a LOT more tannins.
Holy crap, this tea is heavy. This time I thought I got a little
honey flavour but i might be going mad.
Similar teas: Most heavy Indian or
Kenyan teas are in this vein, UK and Irish bag teas will therefore
also be a good match
