Mr. Jonas Makata (Black)

While we are excited to source tea directly from producers who have the means, this often means smallholders don’t have the same opportunity.

Luckily, Satemwa Estate has a program for nearby growers, such as Mr. Jonas Makata, where they buy leaf from smallholders & process at their estate. He is one of 198 independent smallholder tea farmers around Satemwa. He has around 1 hectare of tea and has grown tea since 1976.

We Taste: Marshmallow, Lemon Candy, Floral
