Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
This 2025 Assam selection is notable for its lively character and pleasant astringency that awakens the palate. Hints of malt may be found in both the rich cup and the invigorating fragrance. A light effervescence lingers in the brisk finish. Enjoy plain, or add a dollop of milk to enhance its flavor.
