    Assam Tea

    4.9
    Rated 4.9 out of 5 stars
    1,583 Reviews
    A strong, traditional cup that's as bold in flavour as it is in colour. Our Assam tea is the main part of our English Breakfast and the tea in our Chai. Punchy, nutty, malty and strong. There's a reason it's one of our best sellers.
    Bold & Rich
    Assam's perfect with well-toasted, buttered bread and a little honey. The ultimate breakfast.

    Brewing Tip

    Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.

      Not very strong or malty.

      I love Assam tea and because I loved the English Breakfast tea from Brew company I thought I would sign up for the Assam. Now that I have both, I’ve found that the Assam is very weak no matter how many scoops I use and with either a five minute or three minute brew time. It’s just not very good compared to the English Breakfast. There’s no malty taste to it at all. I will be swapping my sub to the English breakfast tea.

      Tea

      I’ve been a customer of the Brew Tea Company for a number of years and I have to say their tea is excellent quality. If you appreciate a good cup of tea it’s definitely worth buying. I like loose tea although the teabags are great too. I drink the breakfast tea and I’ve tried all of the herbal teas. The customer care is very good and always arrives promptly. Highly recommended
