Assam Marangi SFTGFOP 1
$145.50
Generous malted notes of barley and an ale-like fruity depth lead the way, reinforced by a cast of notes ranging from caramel to Brazil nuts. Astringency in just the right measure ensures balance on your palate. An indisputable, unforgettable tour de force.

Best breakfast tea, 28th Nov 2014
Reviewer: Maura High
This tea has all the sturdy body, rich aroma, and refreshingly astringent taste one hopes for in a classic Indian tea. It is surprisingly strong: one teaspoon per 8 fl oz water, plus (if you are making it in a pot, and I hope you are), one for the pot. Steep for 3 or 4 minutes, and it'll also yield a second, weaker but still delicious tea. If you add milk for the first steeping, as I do (2 percent), it will not be a dark caramel brown, but a lighter more butterscotch one.

Superb Assam, 27th Sep 2011
Reviewer: Frederick Pfaff
The Marangi second flush Assam tea offered here is indeed exceptional. It yields a relatively dark brew which translates into a richness of flavor rather than harshness. As it cools the flavor becomes softer and more nuanced. Aroma is quite wonderful.
