Classic Assam Black Tea comes from one of India’s most important tea-growing regions, Assam, home to the indigenous Camellia sinensis var. assamica plant.
Unlike Chinese tea varieties, Assam tea plants have significantly larger, more robust leaves. This makes them especially suited to strong black tea production, delivering a deeper body, richer liquor, and naturally malty character.
Our Classic Assam is a rare expression within the Assamese tea industry: the leaves are whole, unbroken, and hand-processed using traditional orthodox methods rather than broken CTC grades.
The result is a clean, structured black tea with natural strength, depth, and balance - equally suited to drinking on its own or with milk.
