Assam Loose Leaf Tea
Bold & Rich
A strong, traditional cup that's as bold in flavour as it is in colour. Our loose leaf 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.

About this blend
It's rolled, whole leaf Assam tea. We always buy the most recent harvest here at Tea HQ for the freshest tea. It's got a 2 year shelf life once it gets to you - but don't worry, you'll have drunk it by then.

Brewing Tip
400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf Assam tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on.
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. A splash of milk is perfect to finish it off. For more information, here's our complete guide to brewing loose leaf tea.
Rolled whole leaves. No dust, ever.
Our tea is made from the freshest rolled whole leaves - two leaves and a bud from the top of the tea plant, gently rolled and dried. The result is a much better tea and a richer, tastier cup.
