Korakundah Black Tea - Loose Leaf

Tea Type:
Black tea is made from the Camellia sinensis bush. The leaves from this bush grow black as they oxidize, giving the tea its characteristic color. Black tea tends to be higher in caffeine than other types of teas, making it an excellent morning drink when you need to feel more awake and alert. There are studies which have shown that the antioxidants in black tea, such as polyphenols and catechins, may help reduce atherosclerosis, and the risk of heart attacks. Drinking black tea may also lower one's risk for diabetes, high cholesterol, kidney stones, and more. Other estate grown teas that Seelect proudly carries are Singtom Black Tea, Singtom Green Tea, and Rani Assam Black Tea.

Grown at an altitude of 8,000 feet, Korakundah Tea is untouched by chemicals and grown in a socially responsible manner. From the altitude to the water to the soil and to even the earthworms that churn the land, you'll know you are tasting something truly unique when you drink Seelect Tea's Korakundah Black Tea.
