FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which Kenyan tea grades can you supply?
Mainly CTC black tea — BP1, PF1, PD, D1, Dust and Fannings — plus orthodox black, green and purple teas. Tell us your target taste, colour and price, and we will shortlist auction lots to match.
Is Kenyan CTC tea good for milk tea and karak?
Yes. Its strong colour and brisk strength hold up with milk and sugar, which is why Kenyan CTC is the base of many blends in Pakistan, the Gulf and the UK.
Can I get samples before ordering?
Yes. Send your delivery address and the grades you are interested in, and we will dispatch samples by air courier from Nairobi.
Which shipping terms do you offer?
FOB Mombasa, or CFR / CIF to your nearest port, in 20-ft or 40-ft containers. Payment terms are agreed in each contract.
Do you also export Kenyan coffee?
Yes — washed Arabica green coffee graded AA, AB and PB, for specialty and commercial roasters.
Which languages can we write in?
English, Arabic or Russian.
