As featured on NPR's Morning Edition!

This tea is from the Kachibari Village in northeastern India's Assam, one of the largest black tea production regions in the world. An unusual find from the area, this Assam highlights the passion of the producer Tenzing on his small organic farm: He has taken a lead in making tea without the use of chemical pesticides or fertilizers. The hand-picked leaves have a sweet, deeply fruity aroma; the flavor is bold but balanced, with notes of malt, black currant and molasses, and soothing hints of dark chocolate on subsequent steepings. It maintains a beautiful roundness throughout your drinking session, showing its skillful production.

Assam is one of the teas traditionally used in breakfast blends; try this single estate version to experience the nuanced taste of this lush region.

Great f.S.s.i.t.
Husband approved

Another review convinced me to try this as a replacement for my husband's daily sweet iced tea. I've been searching forever for a better quality tea and finally I found one he likes!

Robust choice!

This tea is a great choice for cold brew! It becomes deep red as it steeps through the day, heightening anticipation until evening when it is ready!

Really lovely, smoky flavor. Tastes great by itself, or with a little sweetner and milk. I do maple syrup and oat milk. It really doesn't need it.

My go-to

I have been drinking this tea for years and keep coming back to it. Smooth and flavorful. I always steep it twice with good results. In Pursuit of Tea has always been great!
