Assam - Banaspaty Estate, Organic & Fair-Trade
In the northeastern state of Assam in India, along the Brahmaputra River grow the hearty, malty Assam teas. The heavy rainfall and hot, humid day time temperatures in this area create the perfect green house like environment for growth, as well as helping to create the unique taste found only in Assam teas. Their distinct flavor can be enjoyed "as is"; however, Assam teas are often used in conjunction with other teas to create numerous blends, specifically breakfast teas.
Banaspaty is a certified organic and fair trade estate that is situated in the Karbi Anglong tribal district of Assam, close to the state of Nagaland. This estate is not far from the world famous Kaziranga Rhino Sanctuary. A visit to the local weekly marketplace is a remarkable experience where local people offer indigenously crafted ethnic products.
The Banaspaty Estate is known for producing high quality orthodox teas. We're thrilled to offer this FTGFOP1 tea that brews to a copper colored cup with a brisk, malty taste that is full flavored and smooth. Destined to become a favorite, you'll love sipping this delightful Assam throughout the day.
Brew tea at 212º - steep for 3 minutes.
Assam teas complement foods such as chocolate, spiced desserts, meat, strong cheeses, fish and more.
