Assam FOP
(Trailblazer Teas Collection)

From the lush, rain-soaked plains that roll along the Brahmaputra River, where elephants still wander through the morning mist and the air itself smells faintly of molasses and sun-warmed earth, comes Assam FOP — the tea that wakes the world.

Born of boldness and humidity, Assam is the heavyweight champion of Indian teas — rich, malty, and unapologetically robust. Its deep amber liquor carries the warmth of sunrise over endless tea gardens, while the scent recalls polished wood, baked grain, and the promise of another long day done right.

This is not a tea that whispers. It greets you with a firm handshake, a booming laugh, and the unspoken understanding that the morning won’t begin without it. Whether taken straight or softened with milk, Assam FOP holds its ground, filling the cup with confidence and comfort in equal measure.

Tasting Notes:
🌾 Aroma: Toasted malt, honey, and a touch of spice
🍂 Flavor: Bold and brisk with notes of molasses, warm grain, and a hint of cocoa
🥄 Body: Full, round, and invigorating — a true breakfast classic
🔥 Finish: Smooth yet assertive, leaving a gentle sweetness on the tongue

Brewing Ritual:
Use one rounded teaspoon of loose leaf for every 6–8 oz of freshly boiled water (around 205°F). Steep 3–5 minutes — three if you seek energy, five if you crave strength. Add milk and sugar if you must, though many purists take it straight, just as the planters of Assam did at dawn, watching the mist lift from the riverbanks.

Sturdy as an oar, bright as morning light — Assam FOP is the workingman’s sunrise in a cup.
