More About This Tea

Bold (not Meh). Full bodied (not wishy washy). Thick (not thin) Golden (not grey). Totally hits the spot.

IT’S DOWN TO THE LEAF

Rwanda has big hills, volcanic soil, tropical sun, big showers. These are the things that make great tasting tea. 

Plus, tea farmers in Rwanda have a formal plucking standard; it’s a serious business. The freshest 2 leaves and a bud. From the top of the bush. Not too big, or too small. Farmers receive premium for plucking tea to this very high standard. And they pluck by hand; hands see better than machines.

Origin

Rwandan tea is a tea taster's secret. Rwanda grows just 1% of the worlds tea, we think it's the best 1%

Elevation

Rwanda is known as the land of a thousand hills. The higher the elevation, the slower the tea grows and the deeper the flavour of the tea.

Process

This is a black tea so once the leaves are plucked and dried, they are left to ferment or oxidise - this means the air gets to the leaves and turns them black. The oxidation is what gives black tea it's deep flavour and colour perfect with milk.

Taste, Appearance

This tea really hits the spot and tastes exactly how you want an everyday tea to taste.

Tea-licious

This tea is at different level. I have tasted different tea from many regions... Spill tea has a very special scent that tastes mild jasmine, earthly flavour and add some milk. It automatically ticks all the boxes for me and I have replenished my stock... Many more orders coming your way.. Spill tea-rectors!

Great tasting and excellent quality tea!

The perfect cup of tea, and what makes it even special is that the farmer that picked is getting paid his fair share. Thanks Spill for making this possible. Ordered a bundle to share with the family! And every one of them is a ‘tea enthusiast’ and can tell the difference from the first sip.

Lovely tea.

I’ve bought this tea for myself and for gifts for others. It’s lovely, well packaged and delivery is great. Would highly recommend.

Outstanding tea!

The Spill tea is the real deal. Especially if you like a full-bodied cup, for me (strong from the teabag but with plenty of oat milk!) it's perfect. It's delicious, has delightful branding, and brilliant ethics so I feel good about drinking tea where there's no exploitation in the supply chain. My tea even arrived with a personal note. I will be telling everyone about what a great cuppa Spill makes.
