Description

Direct from England – Assam is a strong, rich and deep-amber tea with a malty character.

Grown in the Bramaputra valley, the low elevation, high rainfall and humidity are conditions that create the unique taste of this tea. A rich, deep-amber tea, ideal with “elevenses” and throughout the day.
