When seeking an exceptional Assam, you want depth, character and that unmistakable richness. This one delivers precisely that.
The leaf unfurls to reveal a complex, full-bodied infusion brimming with malty warmth. Sip by sip, you'll discover layered notes of caramel, cinnamon, raisin, apricot, nougat, candied orange peel and molasses. The fine, wiry leaves are beautifully flecked with muted gold tips—a sign of quality harvest.
These teas come from Assam's most respected gardens, situated on the North Bank of the Brahmaputra River at 1000 feet elevation, cradled between the hills of Arunachal Pradesh and the Ranga River. The terroir and meticulous cultivation using premium clones like N436, P126 and S3A3 create something genuinely special—a tea that has earned recognition from the Tea Board of India and various excellence awards over the years.
The gardens maintain FSSC 22000, Rainforest Alliance and Ethical Tea Partnership certifications, so you can feel confident about both what's in your cup and the hands that grew it. This is Assam tea at its finest.
