Description
- Enjoy tea as they drink it in India. Our CTC Assam has a striking amber color, rich flavor, and is full bodied as well.
- CTC means the tea has been processed in a "Cut, Tear, and Curl" machine. Tea leaves are shoved in the top, totally destroyed, and then reformed into pellets. These pellets turn brown (oxidize) very quickly. This makes for a super-brisk tea. In Assam, most tea is made like this because it easy to make and there is much demand for this style.
- Caffeinated
- 16 ounce bag of bulk loose tea. Enough tea to brew 130 to 140 cups of tea.
