Assam Behora FBOP Tea

Assam Behora FBOP Tea is an Indian Black Tea closely associated with our family-run establishment. It was here that Mr Robert Stammers, the grandfather of owner Mr Richard Smith, first started his journey in the Tea industry.

The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company has striven to build upon his incredible legacy. We now pack every Loose Tea, Tisane and Coffee fresh to order, ensuring quality and consistency.

What Does Assam Behora FBOP Tea Taste Like?

The rich, fertile soil found at Behora Estate plays a significant role in the character - and, indeed, charm - of this delicious Leaf Tea.

It ensures that, upon making a cuppa, you receive a traditionally full-bodied and malty note with every sip. Expect, too, a sweet, delectable finish that all but guarantees you’ll be rushing to put the kettle on in no time at all.

Assam Behora FBOP Tea Grade

What does the term “FBOP” mean? It stands for “Flowery Broken Orange Pekoe,” which is a grade of many noteworthy elements.

Perhaps most important is the fact that manufacturers have broken up its leaves into slightly smaller pieces, creating a full flavour when brewed. This makes it stronger than an FOP (Flowery Orange Pekoe) but less so than a BOP (Broken Orange Pekoe).

Our Assam Behora FBOP Loose Tea keeps getting better. Should you need extra help getting out of bed in the morning, then look no further than here.

The Smith Family and the Behora Tea Estate

Four generations of the Smith family have worked with Tea and, somewhat more recently, Fresh Coffee. It began in 1928 when Robert Stammers, then aged 23, happened upon an advertisement by the Rajmai Tea Company of Assam, India.

The organisation was seeking a plantation assistant with engineering experience to work at Behora. He didn’t look back - and neither has our company.
