The Muttuck tea estate is located in the far far north east, "Border Country", of Assam (and India) surrounded by Arunachel Pradesh/Myanmar/Ngaland and the tributaries of the grand Brahmaputra river.
Once the site of the ancient town of the “Mottock” emperor and capital of the kingdom of the “Mottock” Dynasty in Upper Assam, it has been a tea estate for over 100 years.
This tea is a higher grade, a finer leaf Assam TGFOP1 (tippy golden flowery orange pekoe) produced in the (northern) summer of 2023.
A classic Assam - deep, rich colour, bold, malty but smooth in taste and full in mouth-feel, that will drink well with or without milk.
Looking for a slightly fancier "breakfast tea"...? This is another one for your quiver...
