Located in northeast India, the Assam Valley lies
120 miles east of Darjeeling on the border with China, Burma and Bangladesh.
There are some absolutely outstanding teas grown in this region, which produces
more than 1,500,000 pounds of tea annually.
Assam tea has a first and second flush. The first
flush has a rich, hearty, full-bodied flavor and aroma. The second flush
produces the famous "tippy" teas (black tea with golden tips). The golden tip
lessens the astringent characteristics of the tea. Assam teas can have a malty
aroma, with a slight sweet, honey fragrance. They are excellent morning teas,
which can often be enhanced with the addition of milk.

Dejoo-0230
/
STGFOP "(Assam)"
A full-bodied, malty Assam with a definite
fruity, sweet note and a fragrance similar to sweet autumn apples. The
Dejoo Estate is among the top 10 estates in the Assam growing region.
The origin of the “Dejoo” name is a mystery. It may have originated from
a Nepal word meaning “brother”. This Dejoo tea is full of golden tips
and produces a rich red liquor. The flavour is very smooth and sweet on
its own, but strong enough to take the addition of milk and/or sugar. An
excellent morning or afternoon tea. |

Dikom-0557
/
STGFOP1 "(Assam)"
A traditional hearty Assam with lots of
golden tips. The liquir is a deep amber shade and the flavour is "clean"
and malty with a hint of fruity under notes. This tea is robust enough
to stand up to the addition of milk and/or sugar. A great tea to start
the day with or as an afternoon tea. |

Halmari
/ BPS-CTC
"(Assam)"
This Halmari CTC (cut, tear & curl) is one
of the heartiest, most robust teas available. The curled deep brown
leaves brew a rich, malty cup, with a slight chocolatey note and a
natural sweetness. There is absolutely no bitter after taste. A touch of
milk seems to enhance the flavours of this robust tea. If you’re looking
for an excellent, full bodied tea to start your day, this is the one.
There are no disappointments with this superior Halmari CTC. Great with
a splash of milk and/or sugar. |
