Tea Origin:

Assam, India




This tea comes from the state of Assam lying on either side of the Brahmaputra River in north-east India which is the birthplace of Indian teas and the largest tea growing region in the country. The high day-temperature in this region creates greenhouse-like conditions of extreme humidity and tropical climate which contribute to the presence of a unique malty taste for which orthodox & CTC Assams are renowned the world over.

  • TEA ESTATE

  • PREPARATION

    How to prepare a perfect cup of tea?

    • Take 1 teaspoon tea leaves. About 2 grams of leaves is ideal for a black tea preparation.
    • Pour freshly boiled water over the tea leaves.
    • Boil the water to 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. You can then let it cool down to up to 90 degrees or 195 degrees Fahrenheit.
    • Steep for 3-5 minutes depending on your taste.
    • Strain the leaves out & enjoy. 
    • Best consumed without or with very little milk.
    • A sweetener like sugar or honey can be added as per taste.  
  • PACKAGING

    Unlike a fine wine, tea loses its character with time. To ensure that our customers get to relish the original flavor & character of the tea we follow the shortest possible lead time in delivering the teas garden fresh from the estates to your doorstep. All our teas are packaged in Double Air Sealed Zipper Pouches within 24-72 hours of production at source in India to ensure that the flavor, aroma & character of the tea is preserved at all times. Each package comes with detailed information about the tea including the origin, tea type, estate and preparation instructions. The strong airtight zipper works as the second seal and there is no need to transfer the teas in another container once you open the initial seal of the package. The tea can be stored in the same package till you consume it entirely. Just ensure that the package is stored away from heat or sunlight.
