About Organic Assam

Dry Leaves	Dark brown leaves.
Liquor	A slightly lighter liquor than other Assams due to the fact that it is organic.
Aroma	The aromas are a muted version of other Assams, subtle roasted malt notes.
Caffeine Level	Caffeinated
Body	This being a full leaf Assam, it is a medium bodied tea. Since there are a limited amount of golden tips, the heft is good.
Flavors	The flavors are bittersweet roasted malt.
Brewing Time	5 minutes
Brewing Temperature	212° F

Our Review

Assam is located on both sides of the Bramaputra River in India.This estate is located on the northern side of the river. It is hot and moist, ideal conditions for insects. Organic gardens are rare in Assam. The teas generally do have the golden tips found on the best Assams. Without tips, the sweet honey flavors are missing.

One to keep on-hand

Average Review:

This tea is wonderful -
full of flavor but not bitter. Wonderful without any sweetener, but
also accepts sugar or honey without being overpowered. Definitely going
to become a standard flavor to keep on hand at all times in my
cupboard. My 3-year-old asks for it by name!

My #1

Average Review:

This the first Harney and Sons tea that I was introduced to during high tea at Bellagio's Petrossian, and is still my favorite even though I've bought several Harney & Sons teas since. It is rich, malty and strong without being harsh or bitter.

A Must Buy

Average Review:

I just had this tea at a Ruths Chris Steak House and came home and had to immediately look it up on the internet. This has to be my favorite new black tea. The description says that it has a honey flavor, but I could not taste it. It has a wonderful flavor and does not have the sharp, bitter qualities of some black teas.
