Assam Orange Pekoe is a wonderful, bold breakfast tea to start your day, as it is more commonly known as breakfast tea, or Irish breakfast tea. It is grown and carefully produced in the beautiful and famous Assam region of India.
Once steeped, our Assam Orange Pekoe releases an aromatic, strong and fragrant bouquet. You will appreciate the bright colour of the brew and enjoy its tart top notes, malty flavour and vigorous body. From the first sip through to the end, you will enjoy a full-flavoured cup with a heady aroma and a deeply satisfying taste.
My recent acquisitions from Tealyra included Surajamukhi Assam Orange Pekoe. I find it rather pleasant to sip, even if it doesn’t knock my hat off. 1.5g in 8 oz boiling spring water for 2 min produced a deep amber infusion with the expected Assam flavor profile. Notes of malt and raisin, with a caramel nose, enough astringency to tickle the tongue, decent aroma, pleasing aftertaste and a little stewiness as the cuppa cooled. Reasonably priced and better than grocery store CTC Assams. I’ll rate it as 75 and recommend it, with the caveat that there are richer and smoother Assamic options out there.
Flavors: Brisk, Brown Sugar, Malty, Raisins, Stewed Fruits
