Tea from Malawi – Authentic African flavors, rich in tradition

Tea from Malawi holds a unique place in history: this is Africa’s first commercial tea-producing country. In the south, between the hills of Thyolo and Mulanje, tea fields have been part of daily life since 1891. The climate proved suitable: cool nights, regular rainfall and fertile soils in the shadow of Mount Mulanje.

While most tea from Malawi is processed for blends and everyday consumption, a smaller but growing segment focuses on orthodox, handcrafted production. From rare white tea pearls to oolongs matured in whisky barrels, these specialty teas show what is possible when tradition, terroir and craftsmanship come together.
