This tea is a tribute to the great Assam Black Teas. The wiry leaves with golden buds have an enticing aroma, and the brewed tea is brisk and refreshing. Pairs well with honey and lemon.

Why You'll Love This Brand

We love the quality and freshness of The Tea Shelf’s teas, and their passion for tea and sharing it with people around the world really shows. In addition to amazing pure teas, they also offer exotic hand-blended teas featuring a creative mix of natural infusions with quality tea leaves. Only the freshest ingredients, flowers, herbs, spices and whole leaf garden-fresh teas go into creating their blends.

Based in Kolkata, India, The Tea Shelf is quite literally steeped in tea – historically as well as philosophically. A heritage of 150 years in the tea business in India, and a tea-loving founder, laid the grounds for this brand that creates a wonderful tea-drinking experience. The Tea Shelf sources handpicked teas from across India (particularly Assam, Darjeeling, Kangra and the Nilgiris) and delivers them straight from the estates to your cup!
