- New to Assam but enjoying this a lot so far. Malty like some have said, plus slight chocolate. Goes bitter quick early on though. My ritual is 1.5 tsp to 8-10 oz. I first steep 5-10 seconds and dump, to lose some of the astringency in the first cup. Then I do a cup for 4 minutes, and grandpa style after that. Love the sweetness towards the end.

- My go-to morning tea. Double-strength with a strict 3 minute steep gives a rich, smooth and malty cup at a very reasonable price. Only downside is that it gets bitter very quickly if you let it steep too long.
- Nice, fresh lot

- Fresh lot. Rich, classic, malty, no frills flavor. Strong performer for the modest price. Beats most of the broken leaf breakfast blends, but not the more ephemeral estate Assam offerings.
- Excellent tea

- Malty, I guess. Don't know a lot about Assam tea. Rich, some tannin but not too much. Vibrant. Potent. Yum.
- Delicious Morning Steep

- After finishing my first cup from the sample I got I found myself craving more. I picked it because "This is our most popular Assam." and I see why. It sports the great nose of a malty roasted elixir and the taste is thick with slight roast, malt, hints of chocolate and honey. I can see this as my default Assam tea. Delicious.
- An Exceptional Tea

Stephen – CA – July 05, 2018
- I switched from coffee to tea a while ago and have tried a lot of Upton's teas to substitute my morning cup of coffee and finally I've found it. This is the smoothest most flavorful Assam I've ever had. It's rich and full-bodied without any unpleasant lingering tastes.
- My Favorite Morning, Noon, and Night Tea

- I have been an Upton Tea customer for over 15 years, but have been a tea drinker for most of my adult life. One of my first experiences of switching from tea bags to loose-leaf tea was in trying Upton’s, “Tippy Orthodox GFOP Assam”. Since then, it has become my favorite tea and I enjoy a cup of this fine beverage morning, noon, and night.
