Assam Tea 2nd Flush FTGFOP1
Brew with fresh boiling water and infuse for 3 to 5 minutes
Description
Assam Tea 2nd Flush FTGFOP1 is a Black Tea from Assam, India. It has a rich, malty taste well-suited to traditionalists.
The fact that it is a 2nd Flush Assam Tea, too, as well as being a Fine Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe grade, plays an essential role in its character. We pack it fresh to order here at our Kent-based factory, ensuring quality and consistency with every cuppa brewed.
It’s also worth noting that Assam Tea 2nd Flush FTGFOP1, like most types of Black Tea, contains a considerable amount of caffeine - around 45-mg per 8-oz cup.
Additionally, according to scientific research, its frequent consumption could lead to improved heart health, enhanced brain function and reduced diabetes risks. Start your journey with The Kent and Sussex Tea and Coffee Company today.
What is the Significance of the Tea Grade?
Some people jokingly remark that “FTGFOP” stands for “Far Too Good for Ordinary People.” Funny though it might be, it is fair to say that there is nothing ordinary about our Assam Tea 2nd Flush FTGFOP1.
This Tea grade is most famous for having a large proportion of golden tips. Such tippy-ness tends to provide a smoother, milder flavour when brewed.
What is Second Flush Assam Tea?
If you love Darjeeling Tea, then you probably know already that First Flush is the most popular choice. However, when it comes to Assam Tea, including this particular Second Flush Assam Tea, it is the second flush that is first-rate.
Harvesting takes place between mid-May and June, by which time the leaves have had time to mature. The result is, put simply, delightful.
