    A tried and true classic

    I've been drinking Assam Keyhung for over a decade. The full-bodied, malty base and caffeine kick are perfect for a morning start or a cozy evening pick-me-up. It's my go-to brew for chai and pairs beautifully with milk and sugar.

    Almost 20 years of buying this

    On an otherwise forgettable trip to Mississippi in 2002, we stopped at a small cafe and had the best iced tea we'd ever tasted. I asked the tea they used, and it was this. We drink it hot and cold. It is strong, so a little goes a long way. But rich, complex and delightful.

    Puts hair on your chest!

    This tea is STRONG. Left to steep for anything longer than half a minute is almost enough to be called "builder's tea." I have to jump on it and remove the leaves almost as soon as the water goes in - but made that way, it's still a hearty cup, thick and dark brown, with a nice, strong tea scent. Very bracing - and if you could figure out the proper steeping time, would probably make a great iced tea.

    I have previously reviewed this tea: it continues to be a favorite. I hope Culinary Teas always keeps it in stock!
