Assam Leaf Blend

Assam Leaf Blend consists of a mixture of whole leaves and crushed leaves, which gives a stronger taste. Assam tea can be malty, sweet and smooth at the same time, which are qualities most tea drinkers appreciate. An Assam Leaf Blend can be enjoyed with milk.

Very aromatic, full flavour with a slight sweetness.

Assam is situated in the northeastern corner of India, where the mighty river Brahmaputra flows. Assam is known for producing the famous “tippy teas”, which refers to a black tea with golden shoots and leaves. The Assam Valley is approx. 200 km east of Darjeeling, where it borders China, Burma and Bangladesh. Unlike in the mountain areas, the soil in the valley is fat and moist. Tea plants in Assam grow rapidly and acquire tremendous vigour. During the monsoon - from April to September - Assam is transformed into the world's largest greenhouse, where almost a third of India's total tea production is produced.
