A high quality, classic, full-bodied Assam, with a wonderful rounded, zesty, malty flavour. Much prized for its rich, lingering taste. Assam black tea is known for a deep, burgundy-red cup and pungent flavour. Our Assam Melody is perfect for tea drinkers who may be new to the powerful character of an Assam. Rich aroma, more sweet starchy than malty, like roasted plantains. Rounded mouthfeel, malty without being overpowering. Slight notes of raisin. Brisk astringency and not extremely pungent.
