Description
Organic Assam Tea – Loose Leaf of Assam tea
Assam tea is grown in the lowlands of the Assam region of India and yields a dark brew with a strong flavor and energy burst. Assam is THE black tea of India and its bold flavor pairs nicely with milk and sugar. Brew up a cup along with our Chai Spice blend to make your own Indian Chai at home for a fraction of the spendy concentrates and artificially flavored powders.
For those with poor circulation or for winter Kombucha brews, its higher in purine which has additional warming properties. It provides an apple-y, cidery flavor to your brew as it creates more malic acid than green tea. Also great as a base to mix with green or white teas or other herbs and flowers to create your own unique flavor blends.
Our premium whole leaf organic teas have a smoother flavor profile than fannings or broken leaves. This means you can equally enjoy it as your morning mug or as a robust base for your Kombucha brew.

This is excellent tea. Used for continuous brew and a cuppa for myself.

I’m going to quote your description: " Assam is THE black tea." Enough said.

This Assam tea is delicious! As a hot cup of tea, it is smooth and soothing (I drink it black). I just bottled my first batch of kombucha brewed with this tea and let me say it is fantastic! This may be my new "go to" tea for kombucha!
Patti Johnson –
One of my top 3 favorite teas now! It’s delicious, warming and soothing! Makes me feel so nice and relaxed when I drink it. My top 3 favorite teas from Hannah are:
1. Hannah’s Special Blend
2. Yin Yang Blend
3. Assam Flowering Orange Pekoe
You know what I do? When I have enough in my pantry, I mix all three together in my very large ceramic tea canister (it’s got an air tight seal) and then I use for my Kombucha brewing and for my daily tea drinking (I brew two small pots of this blend each day and drink it). It’s fantastic!
