{"title":"Assam Black Tea","description":"\u003cp\u003eAssam is India's largest producer of tea, and the broad flood plains make for some of the most fertile tea estates in the world. In the 1820s Assam was a jungle, and it was there that the Bruce brothers found a different type of tea plant. This variety of tea brews a brisk drink that works well with milk and sugar.

It is lightly rolled to preserve the tips. With this technique, there is limited oxidation, making the tea less brisk. Natural sweetness in this tea comes from the tips (or the buds) because the plants send extra sugars there to make more leaves.

Organic gardens are rare here. The climate that makes Assam so productive also makes it ideal for insects, and most estates rely on conventional methods to manage them. This estate, on the northern side of the river, takes a different path. The result is a tea that trades some of the briskness of a traditional Assam for a gentler, more nuanced cup. The full leaf provides substantial heft and a medium body, while a limited number of golden tips lend a natural honey sweetness. It's a wonderful alternative to coffee, rich enough to stand up to milk and sugar but equally rewarding on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harney \u0026 Sons Fine Teas","offers":[{"title":"Sachets \/ Box of 20 Individually Wrapped Sachets","offer_id":35000542406,"sku":"35552","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Loose \/ 1 lb.
