Details
The Organic Assam Tea blend from English Tea Store is a full bodied and brisk tea with tremendous flavor, all the characteristics that make this 2nd flush Assam a great tea. Quite often milk is used to tone down the strength of the tea since milk gives the tea a smoothness that is very pleasant and highlights the malty notes.
This tea is Fair Trade certified, USDA Organic, and QMI Certified Organic.
Available in 3 sizes (Please select from the options above):
First time trying English Tea Store's Organic Assam Loose Leaf Tea?
Try our Sample Size of 1 ounce.- Contents loose leaf tea net weight 4 ounces
- Contents loose leaf tea net weight 16 ounces (1 pound)
Caffeine content: Medium - This tea contains natural caffeine found in the L. Camellia Sinensis family. A cup of black tea steeped in boiled water for 5 minutes will contain between 27 to 35 milligrams of caffeine. An equal sized cup of coffee will contain between 80 - 100 milligrams of caffeine. Caffeine quickly becomes soluble in very hot water. If you wish to reduce the caffeine level in this tea, briefly rinsing the tea leaves in extremely hot water will reduce the caffeine content between 25-50% with only a minor effect on taste.
Antioxidant Content: Very High - 10 - 12.49% polyphenols by dry weight. The longer you steep your tea the more polyphenols will be extracted. (Test results based on 5 minutes steeping time. Polyphenol percentages may fluctuate with lot, grade of tea, testing method, temperature of water and freshness of tea). More antioxidants are extracted from tea (L. Camellia Sinesis) the longer it is brewed. And the more tea is used, the greater the antioxidant benefit.

A good CTC
Pretty much what I look for in a CTC: strong flavour, astringent, can be steeped for a long time without going too bitter.

Morning go to
This is consistently my favorite for morning's get ready for the day comfort brew.

A Family Favorite
Just good dark, rich, malty Assam tea. We make pot fulls in Fall, Winter, & Spring. Take milk/cream really well. I take it to work because it has just enough caffeine to keep me going throughout the day. This tea has really good flavor and steeps very evenly, but don't over-steep. It will get bitter.

Wonderful and full-bodied.
I was excited to find this tea here, and for a good price. I've had some from other sellers that I loved but which was twice the cost. This is VERY full-bodied tea. Dark, rich, and malty. I put some milk in a cup of it yesterday, and my husband thought I was drinking coffee (just judging by the color)! Assam is my favorite for a post-lunch treat.

Consistent quality, good value
A really nice full-bodied tea. Been having it for several years, and it has always ben really good.
-
consistently excellent
This continues to be my favorite for a good strong brew... milk, a tiny bit of sugar and my day starts off right!
-
Excellent morning brew
Simple, strong and flavorful. Perfect with milk.
-
Good strong brew
Very economical, as it doesn't take as much tea to get a strong cup as some of the estate teas. Lovely mellow flavor. I'm going to try mixing it with a bit of smoky tea to get my favorite breakfast cup.
-
Smooth and tasty
I tried this organic tea for the first time and really like the smooth flavor. The price was excellent and I really like being able to find an organic tea with flavor and reasonable price. I will purchase this tea again.
