Experience the Full-Bodied Richness of Teloijan Dark Tea Malty Assam Loose Leaf Black Tea
In practice, Teloijan Dark Tea performs exceptionally well when brewed between 95-100°C for 3-4 minutes, releasing its characteristic malty aroma and deep amber liquor. This Assam loose leaf black tea features a blend of CTC (crush-tear-curl) and orthodox tea leaves sourced from the Camellia sinensis Assam varietal, cultivated in the fertile Brahmaputra River valley. The tea delivers a brisk, full-bodied flavor profile with pronounced malt notes, a subtle astringency, and natural sweetness that balances robustness with complexity. Available in both resealable 100g pouches for everyday convenience and protective tins that shield the leaves from light and moisture, ensuring optimal freshness over extended periods.
Premium Assam Heritage and Expertly Processed Tea Leaves
Teloijan Dark Tea represents the traditional craftsmanship of Assam tea production, where the region's unique terroir—characterized by monsoon climate, alluvial soil, and low-altitude cultivation—imparts distinctive malty and robust characteristics to the tea. The combination of CTC and orthodox processing methods ensures both strength and aromatic complexity: CTC leaves provide the brisk, strong base ideal for breakfast tea, while orthodox leaves contribute nuanced flavor layers and golden tips. This premium loose leaf black tea contains naturally occurring caffeine levels of approximately 50- 90 mg per 240ml cup, making it an effective morning breakfast beverage. The 100g format represents approximately 40-50 servings, depending on desired strength, and adheres to standard loose leaf tea storage requirements for maintaining peak freshness.
