Organic tea is produced without the input of chemical fertilizers or pesticides and herbicides.  Unfortunately the yield per acre is lower and quite often quality can suffer compared to when fertilizers and others inputs are utilized. Nevertheless with good manufacturing techniques the cup characteristics can be maintained at a very high level - such is the case with this tea.

This tea is a classic top quality Assam, very full bodied and tending ‘juicy’.  Quite often milk is used to tone down the strength of the tea since milk gives the tea a smoothness that is very pleasant and highlights the malty notes. 

Hot tea brewing Method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into teapot. Add boiling water, cover and let steep 3 - 5 minutes. Add milk and sugar to taste. Acceptable to consume 'straight up'.
