This is not the Assam that most people know.

When many people think of Assam, they picture a bold breakfast tea—strong, brisk, and meant for milk. This remarkable organic tea from Satrupa Tea Estate tells a very different story. Crafted almost entirely from shimmering golden tips, its appearance is breathtaking. The beautifully rolled leaves resemble the finest handcrafted Chinese black teas, offering a glimpse of the care and precision that went into every harvest.

Before the water even touches the leaves, the tea releases an intoxicating aroma of dark chocolate, malt, and warm cocoa. The liquor is rich and deeply satisfying, unfolding with luxurious layers of molasses, roasted macadamia, and velvety smooth cocoa. There is also a distinctive resinous depth—an elegant, woodsy sweetness that gives the tea remarkable complexity and a long, lingering finish.
