Black tea Assam ST (special tea) Hattialli

  • No. 21442
  • VPE: 1 bolsa à 1 KG
Description

It was by purely by chance that we found this very exceptional quality. All used tea shrubs are at least 20-30 years old P-126 Clones from the famous “Sessa” section. Especially skilled staff plucks the leaves in the early morning hours, followed by an 85% leaf selection, the so-called “final-leaf count”. Withering takes place on small bamboo sheets on shelves with a leaf layer of only up to 2.5 cm. This helps the flavours and tannins to unfold wonderfully. The subsequent rolling is done by small, corrugated rollers which results in the distinct, finely rolled leaf structure. Oxidation is done at only 26°C, but longer than usual. The final drying phase takes place on smaller shelves which preserves the light-coloured leaf tips and captures the full flavour. This tea delights with its delicate elegance and hints of plums, apricots and dark chocolate instead of the usual heavy spiciness of Assam teas. A special treat for purists…

Black tea Assam
Decaffeinated TGFOP1

    The base for this much appreciated decaffeinated Assam TGFOP1 was blended at the origin especially for us! Due to the very careful decaffeination procedure, we can still appreciate the dark brown, very well-worked leaf with golden tips. The cup unfolds a strong, malty aroma with a hint of chocolate.

    Black tea Assam
    Mangalam FTGFOP1 (special)

    • Specialty
    • Topseller

    This Assam is of prime quality! In 1973, encouraged by extraordinarily good production results from the tea plantation “Manjushree”, the owners decided to found a further tea garden: the Mangalam Tea Estate. The selected Assamica hybrids are planted very closely together and produce remarkably good CTC and orthodox qualities. Our Assam Mangalam is a carefully processed tea with large leaves and lots of golden tips. It tastes very deliciously malty and richly spicy. The colour is dark amber. An absolute highlight in every Assam assortment.

    Black tea Assam
    Hunwal TGFOP1

      The Hunwal Garden is located in Jorhat, in the Indian State of Assam, south of the river Brahmaputra. The relatively low altitude of about 1,000 m above sea-level, which is atypical of Assam, and the resulting cooler day- and night time temperatures and the inherent slower growth of the plants guarantee very rich, strong qualities. This well-processed tea is from the second plucking period. It is very spicy and strong, with a distinct aftertaste and a malty and harmonious bouquet.

      Organic black tea Assam
      Tonganagaon FTGFOP1

      • Organic

      For some years now, this rather small tea plantation from the eastern Assam valley has been producing very nice, organic qualities. The Tonganagaon Estate is located at the edge of the Namdapha natural reserve, which is known worldwide for its biodiversity. A delicate leaf structure with golden tips and an infusion, which impresses with its smooth, expressive bouquet and a spicily scented aroma with malty touches. The copper-shining infusion is reflected in the cup.

      Black tea Assam
      Leaf Blend

        A nicely priced, good consumer quality for daily use. We blend this Assam leaf blend in our facilities using select Assam qualities that are chosen from different tea plantations in the country of origin. The infusion of these black, well-processed leaves with light tips is strong and dark and has an earthy, spicy taste and a malty note. The scent is spicy and strong.

        Black Tea Assam
        Leaf Blend OP1

          Right towards the end of the harvest, at the end of August, any surplus teas are offered at very attractive conditions. However, we don’t simply care for the price, rather, we especially look for teas with an expressive, long, black leaf, a medium, copper-coloured cup and a slightly spicy, malty character. Ideal for beginners and price-sensitive tea drinkers.

          Black tea Assam
          Mokalbari East FTGFOP1

          • Topseller

          A classical Assam from the second plucking period from one of the top plantations of the region. For almost 100 years now, excellent teas have been produced here, just like our quality with its wiry, colourful leaf and the strong and spicy flavour with a rich, malty character. A real delicacy, either drunk pure or with Kluntje (rock sugar) and cream, like in Eastern Frisia. It should definitely form part of any upscale tea assortment.
