Kenyan tea and coffee are known worldwide for their rich flavor and aroma. Here are some highlights of Kenya’s tea and coffee culture

Kenya is the third-largest tea exporter in the world, producing premium tea leaves grown in the highlands.

The most popular Kenyan tea is black tea, which is usually served with milk and sugar.

Tea is often accompanied by snacks such as mandazi (fried dough), chapati (flatbread), and samosa (savory pastries).

Kenya is also famous for its coffee, which is grown in regions such as the Aberdare Mountains and Mount Kenya.

Kenyan coffee has a distinct, bold flavor with hints of fruit and wine, making it a favorite among coffee connoisseurs.

When in Kenya, don’t miss the opportunity to visit a local tea plantation or coffee farm and see the production process first-hand.
