The Assam black tea growing region is located in the northeastern part of India, nestled between the mighty Brahmaputra River and the Himalayan foothills. With its lush green landscapes and a unique climate, Assam provides the perfect conditions for the cultivation of tea. The region is known for its vast tea gardens that stretch across acres of land, creating a picturesque sight.
The history of the Assam black tea growing region dates back to the early 19th century when the British introduced tea cultivation in this part of India. The discovery of the indigenous tea plant, Camellia sinensis var. assamica, played a crucial role in establishing Assam as a premier tea-growing region. The rich and fertile soil, combined with the warm and humid climate, proved to be ideal for the growth of this variety, giving birth to the robust and malty Assam black tea that is cherished worldwide. Today, Assam is renowned for producing some of India’s finest black teas, known for their strong flavor, bright color, and invigorating aroma.
