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.

The Dirial tea garden, located in the Dibrugarh district of Assam, cultivates approximately 562 hectares (1,389 acres) of tea.

These leaves are fine, hard rolled, long and very wiry with golden tips. The flavor of the leaf is mildly malty and highly aromatic. The copper-red infusion delights with its forest-like fresh taste, slight spiciness, and special elegance.

Brew tea at 212º - steep for 3 minutes.

Assam teas complement foods such as chocolate, spiced desserts, meat, strong cheeses, fish and more.

Very nice addition!

Since no one else has reviewed this one, I'll offer a few words of praise: this is an excellent Assam and one of my favorites in the current S&V line-up. It's a bit less full bodied than some, is quite complex, with a bit of astringency. Overall, as the above description states, there is a "special elegance" here that makes it very appealing (it's perhaps a bit fruitier than the above implies, though). Many thanks to S&V for adding this one.
