Afghan Tea Quest
One constant feature of Afghan hospitality is tea. And damned fine tea it is. Afghanistan is a player in the tea market, as they consume so much. Others have noted how the Afghans make and drink it.

I seem to remember only one brand of tea advertised - Alokozay Tea. Alokozay is a UAE based outfit that seems to have saturated the Afghan market (even if they might have to do a little tweaking of their advertising).
I cannot find any and it is driving me up the wall. The nice fellow who runs the Namaste Plaza location near where I work has sold me some excellent Indian loose tea, but says I'd have to try a Middle Eastern oriented (no pun intended) grocery to find Alokozay Tea.
Argh!

Major John: There are four Middle Eastern groceries within 15 miles of me. I will call them... if they carry the brand, I'll let you know!
I tried Alokozay Tea it has unique taste and I am proud to see my fellow Afghans are doing something for us!
Alokozay Tea is fine quality. On my stay in Dubai I bought some after finding out that it is actually produced by Afghan company in UAE. Seems they have spend alot of money on adverts in Dubai. I have some in London if you guys need some give us a shout..
Figures...London, Arizona, Kabul. I need a supply here in the Chicago area. I haven't given up hope yet! It is really good tea, and worth the search.

after viewing alot of alokozay tea commercials on canadian televison and seeing there demos at different supermarkets such as t and t, save on and others i decided to give Alokozay Tea a try and to abandon tetely the tea that i had been drinking for over 10 yrs n i made the right decison alokozay tea as a special taste to it and the pricing and promotion makes a perfect package for any tea drinker. i give lots of credit to the company that is distributing alokozay tea in canada yms group canada they have made me a tetely drinker for over a decade into a alokozay tea drinker
Hello, I live in Canada and I drink Alokozay Premium Green Tea. I have a lot of different kinds of green tea, because I am on a conquest to weight loss. I have Tetley Naturally Decaffeinated, and although I like it, I choose Alokozay over it because it has more benefits that the decaf takes out.
Overall, this tea is great and tastes great. I don't know where my family gets it though... I didn't even know it was good quality tea, until I did some researching.
I haven't tasted their tea but I heard that it is quite great. Probably if I have an opportunity I will give it a try.
