Around the World in 80 Teas - Assam Second Flush

Assam is another popular tea in the UK and is often used in Breakfast blends. Assam is heavily seasonal with the best quality arriving during the second flush which is marked by a malty rich thickness with great full-bodied mouthfeel. The secrets to the flavour are the rich alluvial soils sitting alongside the floodplain of the Bhramaputra river, combined with the unique period in the season just after the bush awakes from its dormancy but before the full impact of the monsoonal rains. This is the one tea that definitely needs milk to offset its intense, rich flavour.
