ASSAM BLACK TEA:

This well balanced black tea is oaky, smokey and toasty. Enjoy the classic Assam characteristics in your cup.



ASSAM, INDIA:

The Hunwal tea estate is located in the Jorhat district of the Indian region of Assam, located south of the Brahmaputra river. Much of the Assam region sits at an altitude of 1000-4000 ft. above sea level, giving the region cooler than average temperatures compared to other regions of India. These cool temperatures along with high rainfall accelerate the development of very rich, strong qualities in the black tea leaves.

Isabella T. ★★★★★

The smokey, toasty notes come through even without milk, which I didn't expect from an Assam. Two teaspoons in a 12oz mug steeped about four minutes gives me a solid, oaky cup that holds up all morning.

Hazel ★★★★★

I've been drinking this every morning for a week and the oaky, toasty notes really come through without turning bitter when I forget it steeping. The smokiness is subtle, not like a lapsang, and it holds up fine with a splash of milk. For the price I'll definitely be keeping a tin of this around.

Penelope H. ★★★★☆

The smoky, toasty notes come through nicely without turning bitter, even when I accidentally oversteep it. Only wish the wholesale bag had a resealable top, but for the price I'm not complaining.
