Description: 1Lb/bag. Harney & Sons CTC Assam Loose Leaf Black Tea is a bold, full-bodied tea made using the traditional "Cut, Tear, and Curl" method, which transforms whole leaves into small, oxidized pellets for a brisk and energizing brew. This tea features a striking amber color and rich flavor, commonly enjoyed in India with milk and sweetener. Compared to lighter teas like Japanese Sencha or floral white teas, CTC Assam offers a stronger taste and higher caffeine content, making it ideal for morning routines or afternoon pick-me-ups. With no additives and virtually zero calories, it is a clean and natural beverage choice. To prepare, steep one teaspoon of loose tea in boiling water (around 212°F) for 4-5 minutes, then strain and enjoy plain or as a base with milk and sweetener for traditional Indian-style chai. Each 1-pound bag yields approximately 130 to 140 cups, offering excellent value for daily tea drinkers.
