Description
Bold, brisk, and beautifully balanced, Spice Zen’s Assam Black Tea Blend unites the strength of CTC (Crush, Tear, Curl) leaves with the smooth floral depth of whole-leaf Assam. Crafted in small batches, this blend embodies Assam’s signature richness, smooth malt, subtle sweetness, and invigorating energy that carries through every cup.
A true homage to Assam’s tea heritage, it delivers the vibrant warmth of India’s most iconic region while maintaining perfect everyday drinkability. Whether served plain or with milk, its deep coppery liquor and robust body evoke the timeless ritual of classic tea craftsmanship.
Sourced exclusively from the Bhubrighat Tea Estate on the fertile plains of Assam, India where loamy soils and humid subtropical weather yield teas renowned for their malty complexity and aromatic depth. This estate-grown blend reflects the best of both worlds: the boldness of CTC tea and the smooth nuance of whole leaves.
