Our Assam Gold Black Tea is an exquisite example of the Assam teas produced on Mangalam estate. The Mangalam estate is found in India’s subtropical north east and is renowned for its rich alluvial soils from the Bramhaputra River.

Mangalam Estate produces delicious full bodied Assam Tea with its characteristic malty strength and notes of fruit and spice.

Our Assam Gold Black Tea is the product of carefully handpicked whole tea leaves and generations of orthodox tea production.

*Based on 3g per serving, infused twice.

Appearance: Dark, tight black and brown leaf softened with profuse golden-orange tip

Infusion: Deep, glowing russet-ruby

Aroma: Bright, sweet and harmonious, hinting at raspberry leaf and citrus peel, toasted buckwheat and cream
