Assam is a robust, sweet-tasting black tea — a natural base for milk teas. If you're weighing up Assam black tea, here's what it's used in.
What Assam Black Tea Is Used In
As a black tea base, Assam is commonly used for:
| Application | Notes |
|---|---|
| Black milk teas | A robust, malty milk-tea base |
| Brewed black tea | Served on its own — the product brews a bright-red, sweet cup with no bitterness |
| Black-tea fruit teas | A stronger base under fruit syrups |
The product is described as delicate and elegant with a rich, sweet taste and no bitterness — distinct from darker, stronger Indian Assam.
How to Brew It
Brew 3g in boiling water for 3–5 minutes; steep longer for a deeper flavour. From there, add milk for a milk tea or use as a fruit-tea base.
