2023 Organic Kanoka Estate 1st-Flush Whole Leaf Assam Tea

Our 2023 Organic Kanoka Estate 1st-Flush Whole Leaf Assam Tea is a beautifully handcrafted, all natural, whole leaf orthodox Assam tea laden with golden tips. Every year I anxiously await the arrival of this spectacular all natural orthodox black tea from the Kanoka Estate in rural Assam, India. The subtle floral aroma has notes of cacao and pipe tobacco interlaced with light citric and rose flavors. This tea produces a more flavorful & full-bodied brew that has more depth & complexity than other Assam teas. The dark amber colored liquor has an underlying honey sweetness with notes of molasses, roses & grapefruit. To fully appreciate the depth & complexity of this superb tea it should be drunk without milk.  Kanoka Tea Estate is a small family owned & operated tea farm in central Assam, India, that is committed to using only Vrikshayurveda organic farming methods. Vrikshayurveda is the ancient Indian plant science focusing on the health & life-cycle of the plant
