_______________________________________
Founded in 2012 and located in Vancouver, BC - JusTea has been working with the Katah family and the Nandi Hills community to establish Kenya’s first-ever “Artisanal Tea Cottage Factory”.
This small factory is processing orthodox teas that have never been crafted in the world market: Purple, Green, Oolong and Black artisanal Kenyan teas.
The factory is fully staffed, managed and owned by small-scale Kenyan tea farmers in Nandi Hills. The Tea Board of Kenya, granted JusTea with one of the first tea processing licenses to produce these artisanal, direct-from-farm teas allowing the farmers the opportunity to earn a fair wage for their high quality crops.
JusTea exclusively offers their wide range of stunning whole leaf teas via their online store, Amazon and many retail and food service locations across Canada and down into the States.
