Grown in the North of India, Assam Leaf hasanice red liquor, a strong biscuity flavour, and is usually served with milk

This magnificent Indian black tea comes from the World's largest tea plantation area. The state of Assam, which borders Burma and Bangladesh, has been producing this rich, strong, brisk and malty flavoured tea (which is best served in the morning) for centuries.

This area of Northern India is synonymous with extreme tropical weather conditions, regularly experiencing high levels of precipitation during the rainy season, where more than 10 inches of rain falls each day. This, combined with a daily temperature of around 40ºc creates intense humidity which plays a big part in Assam tea' individual malty taste.

As well as having very unique weather, this area's tea gardens actually have their own time zone. Brought in by the British during their colonial rule, “Tea Garden Time” is separate from Indian Standard Time and ensures the area's early sunrise is fully taken advantage of by workers. That's how you know just how seriously the Assam people consider their tea.
