Dom Dom Assam brews a hearty cup: full-bodied and bold, yet with a medium texture. The astringent finish comes through clear as a bell. If you enjoy teas from Assam, India, then this organic single origin tea will suit you. Take in the robust aroma, with its familiar prune and malt notes. Enjoy the heft in the cup, characteristic of the assamica varietal of Camellia sinensis. The cup tastes savory, with leather notes.
At 3 minutes, the cup tastes smooth and rich. If you add milk and sweetener, or if you enjoy stronger bitterness in the finish, then try a longer steep.
The "Dom Dom" in the name of this Assam black tea comes from the sound of elephants walking. We partner with tea farms that prioritize ecological health. That includes organic farming practices, as well as coexisting with regional wildlife—including elephants, which suffer from habitat loss, harassment, and hunting.
