Queen of Assam

If tea perfection had a name, it would share the name of this orthodox Assam gem. This tea is not only a joy to drink, but an experience for eyes as well. We dare to say this is the most beautiful tea in our collection, with elegant and full unbroken leaves and buds, so much different from broken pieces usually found among Assam teas. Brilliant golden ring on the brim of your cup and deep full character will intoxicate you with its beauty. Dry leaves offer strong fruity aroma that develops into full-bodied and well-rounded robust malty brew with chocolate and molasses layers. It will leave a bit of tangy feeling at the tip of your tongue that will soon change into a sweet aftertaste. Organically grown, handcrafted by small farmers and exclusively brought to you for pure enjoyment.

BREWING GUIDE

• Water temperature: 90-95º Celsius
• Dosage: 2.5-3 grams of tea
• Amount of water: 150-200 ml
• Re-steeping: 3 times
• Steeping time: 4,5,6 minutes

METHOD

We suggest you to always use freshly boiled water cooled down to the proper temperature. Use suitable tea ware and cover the teapot or teacup when brewing. To discover delicate subtleness of each tea always follow the instructions, and feel free to experiment with dosage, time or temperature when you get accustomed to tea. Higher temperature, larger amounts of leaves and longer steeping time will result in a stronger tea with more astringency. You can add sugar, lemon or milk to your tea, but we suggest that you try it straight first to enjoy it to the fullest.
