Import Black Ctc Tea Of All Grades — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Kenya

Black CTC tea from Swift Commodity Enterprises covers all commercial grades, from BP1 and PF1 to lower dust grades, sourced from Kenya’s high-altitude estates. The leaves are crush-tear-curl processed to yield a uniform, granular leaf with strong color and brisk liquor, typical of Kenyan tea profiles. Each grade is separated to meet distinct market demands, with BP1 and PF1 favored for their boldness and bright infusion.

The tea is produced from Camellia sinensis var. assamica, with typical moisture content held below 7.5 % and a standard bulk density range of 450 to 550 g/l for CTC grades. Broken percentage and fiber content vary by grade, with PF1 typically under 10 % broken and BP1 under 15 %, while dust grades may exceed 30 %. The cup delivers a typical theaflavin level of 0.8 to 1.2 % and thearubigin of 8 to 12 %, contributing to the brisk, bright character associated with Kenyan CTC tea.

This tea is primarily used in tea bags and mass-market blends, with bulk buyers including packers, blenders, and food service operators across Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia.
