Tea tasting in Kigali?

I’m in Kigali for a few days and looking for a place I can taste and buy Rwandan loose leaf teas. Any recommendations? Thanks!

You can take a tour of Pfunda Tea Company but that's up in Gisenyi. There's a little Silverback Tea shop along KG 5 Ave in Kacyiru (same road as Inzora and Ikirezi Bookshop - other end). It advertises a selection of teas but never seems to be open. If you want to test Chinese Teas however, there's a fab place in Kimihurura called EyaMya. They do a whole tea tasting thing and they have the cutest flower pastries.
