Twinings Loose Leaf Assam Tea 125g
Product information
A bold, satisfying, proper cup of tea with a full-bodied, lasting flavour.
Where does it come from?
There are only two places in the world where tea plants are native.
The state of Assam in India is one of them. We've been sourcing tea from gardens on the flood plains of the Brahmaputra River since 1838. You learn a thing or two in almost 200 years, like which leaves give the best flavour. That's how we know our Assam contains only the best.
What makes this tea different?
Our Assam leaves aren't picked until June because that's when they start making the best-tasting tea. Off-peak is just not the same.

Lovely tea
I love a stronger brew, and using loose leaf tea allows you to use the quantity you want to make your perfect cuppa. Great taste too.
It's ok...
Couldn't get to waitrose to get their own tea, so bought this as desperate. Definitely dust and not leaves like waitrose, tastes ok but I will be more organised from now on. Just can't believe this is the quality of Twinings.
beautiful malty flavour
Assam is my favourite and this is a reliable nice cuppa. Shame the inner plastic based foil wrap is still not recyclable.
more like tea dust
I used to buy Waitrose Assam loose tea but now this is the only alternative on Ocado. It is good tasting Assam but its a fine powder not tea leaves so I always end up with some coming through the strainer. Very disappointing.
the grit from in teabags
This is hardly worthy of being called loose leaf at all. It is almost a powder and passes through my tea strainer.
downmarket product
As a regular purchaser of this tea for many years the price has spiralled but I have continued to buy it for the taste. The quality of the taste and the leaves has over the last few months deteriorated, a large amount of tea bag like dust is left in the caddy. V disappointing
