This
Golden Tippy Assam produces round, full- bodied cup with deep copper liquor in
the cup.
It is well balanced with a distinct malty finish, full and broken
tippy leaves from the early Second flush of 2019.
One of the finest pick of the
season.
The
Assam region borders Bangladesh and Burma, known for high precipitation
(especially during monsoon period) and high humidity and temperatures.
This hot
terroir yields a strong, malty, black tea character. Contrast that
to Darjeeling and Nilgiri teas, which are grown in the highlands, and
exhibit great complexity (as opposed to strength and maltiness).
Summer
harvest Assams are superior to spring harvests, largely due to the
"tippiness" of the leaves, which can be seen as the golden or white
tips.
This Golden Assam is lower in strength than our Organic Assam, because the larger leaves result in slower release of the flavour molecules.
