Assam is a black tea named after the region of its manufacturing:(Assam, India). This tea grown-up at sea level is known for its body, briskness, malty flavor, and strong, bright color. Assam teas, or blends containing Assam, are often sold as "breakfast" teas. English Breakfast tea, Irish Breakfast tea, and Scottish Breakfast Tea are ordinary trade names.
Though "Assam" in general denotes the distinctive black teas from Assam, the region produces relatively smaller quantities of green and white teas as well with their own distinctive characteristics.
Historically, Assam is the second commercial tea making region after China. China and Assam are the only two regions in the world by means of native tea plants. Assam tea revolutionized tea drinking habits in the 19th century since the tea, produced from a different range of the tea plant, yielded a different kind of tea.
