If you're looking for a strong and versatile Everyday Assam Tea, this blend is perfect for those who want to offer a wide range of high-quality drinks. This strong Assam tea is ideal for a great tea experience because it has a full-bodied flavour and a sweet richness.

Understanding Assam Tea

Assam is famous around the world for its many tea estates. It is located in the Brahmaputra Valley. The area has a tropical climate with lots of rain and rich, loamy soil, which makes for an incredibly aromatic tea blend. Everyday Assam Tea has a deep purple colour, a strong malty flavour, and a full-bodied taste that engages all the senses.

2nd Flush Assam Tea

As a 2nd Flush Assam blend, this tea is an excellent example of Assam Tea's variety. The 2nd Flush is known for having the best quality because it is grown during the best growing season, May to June. The perfect weather at this time of year helps the valuable "golden tips" grow on the tea leaves. These tips give the tea a honeyed taste and make the brew more complex and detailed, with interesting flavour notes.

The Strength of Pekoe Fanning Grade

Everyday Assam Tea uses Pekoe Fanning (PF) Grade in a very classy way. Smaller, broken tea leaves make up PF Grade. They make for a stronger infusion and a more marked taste profile, so you can always count on a hearty cup of tea. Using a PF Grade makes this blend perfect for everyday use when serving strong, satisfying Assam tea.

It took over 10 years for Assam tea to be classified and accepted as tea. Learn more in our article at the Tea Hub: History Of Tea in Assam
