Assam Breakfast Tea Caddy
Assam Breakfast Tea Caddy
To ensure a bold and true expression of Assam character, we have created our single origin breakfast blend using the finest second flush tea. Our Head of Tea, Tom, selects the best batches from Assam’s foremost gardens out of the hundreds that he tastes each year. In India’s subtropical north east, the Assam terroir borders the Himalayas and is renowned for its rich soils, producing teas that offer the ideal balance of strength, assertiveness and malty flavour – everything that we believe makes the perfect 'english' breakfast tea.

Hi Skanu,
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review! It's great to hear how much you love the flavour of the Assam Breakfast tea purchased from JING.
Warm regards.
JING Customer Service Team - Nice enough but not my favouriteI love Jing... I mean I absolutely love Jing. I have developed a slightly worrying tea habit over the past few years and was excited to try this tea.
Maybe my expectations were set too high but this is the first tea from Jing that I have regretted buying... Maybe the batch I had wasn't the usual standard, but for me it lacks depth of flavour when compared to other breakfast Assam teas.
That said, I have only sampled one batch of this tea and it is perfectly drinkable.
In summary, this one isn't for me (for the price I'd rather drink another brand of Assam) but Jing remain by far my favourite company for quality teas and teaware.

Thank you for your feedback about our Assam Breakfast tea. We're sorry to hear that it didn't meet your expectations in terms of depth of flavour and that it wasn't to your liking. However, we're glad to hear that you enjoy our other teas and that we remain your favourite company for quality teas and teaware.
We take great pride in sourcing the best teas from around the world, and we're constantly striving to achieve a balance of strength, colour, and depth of flavour that represents the best of each year's crop from each origin. Our goal is to produce breakfast teas that are the best in their class, and we're sorry that this particular batch didn't meet that standard for you.
We appreciate your feedback, and we will take it into consideration as we continue to source and blend our teas. We hope that you'll give our Assam Breakfast tea another chance in the future and that you'll find it to your liking.
Thank you again for your support of Jing, and we look forward to continuing to provide you with the highest quality teas and teaware.
