Description
A robust, aromatic and remarkably balanced Assam tea, with woody, polished and spicy notes.
Located in north-eastern India, Assam is famed for the production of black teas defined by wood and spice notes and a firm tannic structure. It was in the 19th century that Major Robert Bruce identified, in this region crossed by the Brahmaputra river, the Camellia sinensis assamica from which this tea is made.
A perfect way to begin the day.
