Until the mid-1960s, it was not legal for African Kenyans to hold property and, therefore, they could not own the land they cultivated. Things changed with the end of British rule, and those farmers with decades of expertise could finally take control of their own destiny. What they built from that moment forward is nothing short of remarkable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, in the Kenyan mountains, there are passionate tea farmers who emphasize careful two-leaves-and-a-bud plucking and are creating a grand legacy one harvest at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy intention in bringing you this tea is to fill your cup with the strength, passion and soul of those who have poured everything into cultivating and producing something beautifully bold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrom the Kenyan Highlands\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKenya's high-elevation growing regions produce some of the most distinctive black teas in the world. The assamica cultivar thrives here, developing the bright malt and orange character that serious tea drinkers recognize immediately. Grown in rich volcanic soil at altitude, with equatorial light and cool highland mist, Legacy Black is a single-origin expression of everything Kenyan black tea does best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bold, high-clarity cup with the classic Kenyan character of bright malt and orange, deepened by notes of peat, dark cherry and roasted almond. Beautifully creamy with a richness that welcomes milk and honey, though it stands just as proudly on its own. This is a tea that knows exactly what it is: a tea to slow down the morning rush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInfused with Intention\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Island Elixir tea, whether our own craft blend or a rare single-origin like this Kenyan black, is infused with Reiki energy. Legacy Black is no exception. This is a tea for the moments when you want to feel grounded in something larger than yourself, connected to the land, the people and the story behind what is in your cup.
