Our Organic Assam Loose Leaf TGFOP (Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe) is has a malty sweet aroma and a coppery amber color when brewed. It’s great with or without milk any time of day.

Sipdown! (19 | 508)
This one is a swap sample from an Instagram friend! I used slightly more leaf than I probably would have, just because I didn’t want to have a comically small amount left over. :P
It’s very tasty though, and doesn’t seem to have suffered from the overleafing. Surprisingly smooth for an Assam, with only a little touch of astringency. Very rich, malty, and bready, and there’s also an unusual oatmeal-like flavor to it that I’m really enjoying. There isn’t much in terms of brown sugar or raisin however, which I am missing a bit. I would love to add some oatmilk here, but sadly I haven’t gone to the store yet after being away for about a week.
I will say, I probably shouldn’t be drinking this without having eaten, as I can already feel my empty stomach objecting to such a strong and acidic tea heh… :P
