The Chai Bazaar collection at Assam1860 brings the authentic taste of India's tea heritage directly to your cup. Sourced exclusively from the family-owned James Warren Tea estates, this CTC black tea is crafted for those who appreciate a full-bodied liquor with a robust, malty character. Whether you prefer the convenience of tea bags or the ritual of loose-leaf brewing, each format delivers the same exceptional quality that has made Assam tea famous worldwide. The expertise, soil, and climate of these historic gardens combine to produce a flavour profile that simply cannot be replicated elsewhere, giving every brew a depth and richness that stands apart from ordinary commercial teas.

What truly sets Assam1860 apart is the remarkable freshness of its tea. Because the entire journey—from plucking to packaging—is managed within a single family-owned operation, the tea reaches you approximately six months fresher than most other brands on the market. This freshness translates directly into a sharper, cleaner taste and a more vibrant liquor in your cup. For chai lovers, this means a masala chai that sings with aromatic spice and bold tea character, while those who enjoy straight black tea will appreciate the clean, unadulterated flavour that comes from tea at its peak. Every sip reflects careful attention to timing and handling.

The 25 tea bag box format is designed for everyday indulgence and convenience. Each bag holds precisely 2.25 grams of premium CTC black tea enclosed in a fine nylon mesh that allows for a clean, even infusion every single time. A simple steeping of two minutes in boiling water unlocks the tea's full potential, releasing its rich colour and malty depth into a satisfying cup. This format is ideal for busy mornings when you need a reliable, quick brew without compromising on quality. The consistent cut and grade of the CTC leaves ensure that every bag delivers the same bold, dependable flavour, cup after cup.

Beyond the product itself, Assam1860 reflects a deep commitment to sustainability and responsible cultivation. The estates operate under strict food safety norms and maintain a strong focus on environmental stewardship, including rainforest alliance approval across the gardens. This dedication to ethical production ensures that the tea you enjoy today supports a stronger future for the land, the people, and the communities involved in its creation. From the careful maintenance of soil health to the sustainable practices woven into daily operations, every step is taken with both quality and conscience in mind—so you can savour each cup knowing it represents tea as it should be.
