Assam White Tea: Mothola, beautifully light, notably malty.
The long white velvety buds of this Assam white tea have a rich floral aroma and produce a rich flowery liquor that is clean and fresh. This is a lovely, highly exclusive and most beautifully made tea from the Mothola Estate, located on the north bank of the great Brahamaputra river in eastern Assam. It is one that matches the very best white teas from China but with the rich maltiness that is exclusive to Assam. This is one of only two gardens known to produce white teas in Assam. The buds are meticulously hand picked in early spring and are then air dried. Use one heaped teaspoon, about two grams per cup and infuse for five minutes with freshly boiled water that has cooled for two minutes to around 80 C. This is a highly prized and unique white tea to be savoured.
Tea from Grey's Teas
Our teas are loose leaf and we specialise in large leaf grades. All are made using traditional orthodox methods. Our teas are from named tea gardens or defined areas of origin.
Sourcing our tea
This Assam white tea has been chosen for its distinctive, balanced flavour, aroma and appearance. Our tea is carefully sourced from long-established shippers. We can therefore guarantee the quality and origin of each tea and that it conforms to UK food and drink health regulations and our own demanding grading requirements.
The benefits of loose leaf tea
This loose leaf tea enables the full flavour characteristics of the tea to infuse. This tea is chosen for its high grade which imparts the flavour and aroma characteristics for which this tea is best known. A little extra time is necessary when infusing large leaf grades but you will be rewarded with a superior, more balanced cup. You will be well rewarded for your patience!
