Assam Mokalbari Second Flush
 |
|
Commercial Description
Our most popular Assam. Situated on the banks of the mighty Brahmaputra River, Mokalbari is a regional superstar. Once you have tried this generous, burnt orange cup you will find it difficult to drink other Assams without a touch of nostalgia. Complex and haunting, with notes of burnt caramel, squash, almond butter and earthy tobacco.
Brewing Instructions: (from TeaGschwendner)
One heaping teaspoon per 8oz cup of filtered, boiling water. Allow to brew 3 minutes.

Half-litre pot at home, made from a sample included in the tea company's Advent Tea Calendar (2020) and consisting of fine, wiry leaves of Assam tea in all shades of brown. Pours clear dark copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of Assam leaves, quite malty but not aggressive at all. Intense, leafy flavour with malty notes and spicy touches. Astringent palate with a leafy aftertaste. A very nice Assam: tasty and somewhat spicy but definitely not an inch beyond what is delicious. It comes at a very affordable price, too, given the context (ca. €0.42 per 1 sample in the collection). I might consider buying a regular portion one day but these tend to be rather expensive, starting at €11.50 per 100 g (!)
