Assam TGFOP black tea: a blend for a characterful infusion

Black tea generally comes from former British colonies (India, Sri Lanka or Ceylon, Indonesia, etc.). It is called red tea in China, referring to its color after brewing (not to be confused with rooibos). Organic TGFOP black teas, whose leaves are grown in the Assam region of India, are the result of a second harvest. The grade "Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe" indicates that the tea is composed only of terminal and golden buds (Tippy golden). Its orange color embodies the Dutch royal family of the time.

The benefits and virtues of Assam TGFOP black tea

Unlike green or white teas, black teas have undergone strong oxidation. The most renowned come from Darjeeling (blends) or the Yunnan gardens in China (pu-erh). Like other black teas, the Assam TGFOP second flush Rembeng tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly polyphenols. Regular consumption of its infusions is beneficial to health. It can reduce cardiovascular risks or protect cells from aging. Whether plain or in blends, black teas aid digestion. Authentic, invigorating, and full-bodied, they awaken the senses.
