Like other types of true tea (including black tea, green tea, white tea, oolong tea, and pu-erh tea), purple tea is made from the leaves of the camellia sinensis tea plant. Unlike these other types of tea, the leaves of the specific varietal used to produce purple tea are purple instead of green. Purple tea was found growing wild in the Assam region of India, and is now primarily grown in Kenya. Our purple tea is from the Tumoi Tea Garden in the Nandi Hills of Kenya.
