Description

This Assam is from the Meleng Tea Estate, grown in northeastern India
in one of the most important tea-growing regions of the subcontinent.
These fine teas are drunk worldwide and often as a part of Irish
Breakfast blends. This is a sweet black tea with a distinct molasses
and caramel flavor. The golden tips denote that only the sweetest young
leaves were used. This is one of our all-time favorites - a great
breakfast tea. Strong enough for milk and sugar if that�s your
pleasure.

Brewing Notes

Start with your favorite spring or filtered water. Heat the water to a boil, or about 210 F.
Use about 3 grams of tea per 6 oz serving. Please note, for denser teas this is about 1 teaspoon; for larger-leaf teas this could be up to 2 tablespoons.
Steep for 2-3 minutes. Remove the leaves when ready -- rely on taste, not color. Use a large enough strainer basket to allow the leaves to open and release their flavor. Get to know the tea by playing with the amount of leaf, the water temperature, and steeping time. Re-steep to make another cup!
