Bold but very drinkable, this unique Assam is bursting with rich, round flavor. In a class by itself, this tea is very appealing.

100% Natural Ingredients
Kopili Assam Black Tea
Brewing instruction:
For best flavor steep for 3-5 minutes
1.5 tsp for 300mL water @ 100C, steeped 4 minutes, drunk bare.
An excellent Assam. Bold, not bitter. Notes of freshly baked bread, roses, and sunshine. Medium to heavy body. Drenching Assam taste. Good malty pucker but not so astringent as to tear the mouth off ya. Sweet notes. I prefer it steeped a little longer.
A review of Kopili Assam Tea by Stash Tea Company
I am enjoying having a full box of this tea since I can mix it with my Acai tea to add that hibiscus and berries to the tea.
I took one tea bag of each tea and placed in my mug and added full boiling water to the cup. I left to steep for almost five minutes with cover on. I was anticipating the tea’s liquor to be very lively and I was not disappointed. Tea’s color was a very dark almost purplish color; dark red, and it smelled wonderfully sweet. I think the Assam took the berries with hibiscus very nicely.
The strength of the Assam is very bold, and by adding the Acai berry, it softened it and made it a livelier cup without milk or sugar. Next time I might add two or three Acai Berry tea bags to one bag of Assam.
Overall, it was a cup of malt interlaced with Acai Berry to bring out the sweet liquor in the cup. It is still a long way since Assam pairs better with milk and sugar.
Thank you TeaEqualsBliss for this sample!
I am enjoying this today! The aroma is surprisingly sweet; the flavor is nicely rounded. Not bitter. I actually wouldn’t mind having more of this in my cupboard, it’s a nice standard black tea.
This black tea is a little plant-like, but not bad. It’s from a past TTB. It does decently with some sugar and milk. I expect an assam to be bolder, but maybe this batch is old.
My favorite unflavored from Stash.
I have been passing through their catalog lusting for all the tea paraphernalia. (I may have purchased a couple of potty teacups but we won’t say for sure.)
GAH! Pretty, not potty! What a horrible autocorrect!
Stash carries gorgeous stuff. They were the first tea company I fell in love with. Back in university, 1989 onwards … the cafeterias had Stash bags, and I fell hard for the Orange Spice and Jasmine Spice. Some of their herbal blends were just plain weird, but I admired the creativity. Some of their teacups — oh, I swoon over them.
