Organic Assam TGFOP Whole Leaf Tea

* Tasting notes:  Malty, Earthy, Honey

 

It’s tea, the ACK Roasters way!
We put a different spin on the average tea experience. We saw that tea was offered as a “powder” in tea bags that tended to deliver a bitter, less fresh tasting cup, or as a whole leaf tea prepackaged in a pouch or loose in a tin.
Our solution: the best organic whole leaf tea from world-renowned locations, packaged with compostable paper pouches you can fill to make your tea as strong or as light as you choose. It’s like luggage with wheels; why doesn’t everyone do this?
This Certified Organic loose leaf tea is a classic organic black tea that comes to us from state of Assam in northeastern India. The teas produced in this region tend to possess a malty flavor and a rich, savory aroma; distinct features typical of the tea’s unique production process. Our Assam tea is composed of finely twisted leaves with occasional golden, downy tips. Our Assam TGFOP Black Tea has a full-bodied red-brown infusion that does not disappoint, truly highlighting the character of a high-quality Assam tea

Description

Tea details

Assam is a state in northeastern India, and most of the tea that is produced there is near or at sea level. Known for production of tea and silk, most of its agriculture depends on the heavy monsoon rains and high humidity that create almost a greenhouse-like effect on the region. Production and cultivation of tea in Assam has been happening since the mid-1800s. ACK Roasters Assam teas are sourced from several different Fair Trade and organic estates.  Assam tea is specifically from the plant Camellia sinensis var. assamica (Masters). Assam’s people tried to plant the Chinese varieties in Assam soil but but were unsuccessful.
Black Tea, which is “fully oxidized” during manufacture has dark brown/black leaves. Notable types of Indian black tea include: Darjeeling, Assam, and Nilgiri. The TGFOP designation of our tea stand for “Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe”, one of the highest classifications of whole leaf teas.
