At Gathoni Park Farm, we believe in transparency throughout the growing and processing journey. When you visit our farm, you’ll witness firsthand how we nurture our tea from seedling to cup.
From Leaf To Cup
Our tea follows a meticulous journey from cultivation to your teacup. Learn about each step in creating our premium Kenyan tea.
Cultivation
Our tea plants are carefully cultivated in rich volcanic soil at the perfect altitude.
Harvesting
Only the top two leaves and bud are hand-picked to ensure premium quality.
Withering
Freshly picked leaves are spread out to naturally wilt and reduce moisture content.
Rolling
Leaves are rolled to break down cell walls and release essential oils.
Oxidation
The rolled leaves are exposed to oxygen, developing the rich flavor and color.
Drying
Leaves are dried to halt oxidation and preserve flavor at its peak.
Packaging
Tea is graded, sorted by quality, and carefully packaged to maintain freshness.
