Assam is one of the finest teas in the world. The deep-amber colour and bold taste ensure that it is the perfect companion throughout the day. There are only two places in the world where tea plants are native. Assam in northeast India is one of them. We’ve been sourcing tea from gardens on the flood plains of the Brahmaputra River for generations and that ensures you learn a thing or two, like which leaves give the best flavour. That’s how we know our Assam contains only the best. Our Assam leaves aren’t picked until June because that’s when they start making the best-tasting tea. Off-peak is just not the same. Stout structure, malty piquancy and a deep amber glow. The exclusive character of Assam’s finest is unmistakable. Cultivated near or at sea level, the full-bodied taste and heady aroma of our Classic Assam Tea are best enjoyed with a faint sprinkle of your favourite spice.
