This month's featured tea is Kenyan Ajiri Tea. The first tea testing session will kick off with this tea along with a demonstration our new line of tea sugars and tea enhancers on September, 12, 2010.

High in anti-oxidants, Ajiri Tea is remarkably fresh, bold and flavorful. Coppery in appearance, rich in body and deeply pungent with a distinct flavor, Ajiri Tea is an enjoyable tea, hot or cold. It is produced at the Rainforest Alliance Certified Nyansiongo Tea factory, a cooperative owned by local small-scale farmers, where it is hand-picked.

The mission of Ajiri Tea Company is to provide employment for women in Kenya and to educate orphans in their communities. "Ajiri" means to employ" in Swahili, the national language of Kenya. Women in the Kisii region handcraft the box labels, using dried banana bark and recycled magazines, so the package is just as delightful as the taste of the tea itself. Currently five different women's groups, totaling over 60 women, are creating artwork for the Ajiri Tea Company.

100% of the Ajiri Tea Company's net profits are returned to the Kisii community.

Join us in sampling this wonderful tea and purchase a few packs (they also make great gifts) to support the women and children of Kenya.
