Assam Tea
Louise the tea taster says
Every vendor, in every city, in every region of India, offers their own version of Chai Masala, the aromatic, spiced, milky tea that has been the Indian drink of choice for hundreds of years. Here’s our version: a rich, malty Assam tea blended with cardamom pods, cinnamon, ginger and cassia. A satisfying, healthy drink that captures the vibrancy and colour of India in a cup.
How does it taste?
A gutsy Assam tea and an exotic mix of whole spices for a true taste of India.
Good if you're feeling
half-asleep. This tea will boost the awake half, and give the sleepy half a resounding slap around the chops.
