From New Mexico Tea Company

One of the finest Assam tea estates, Doomur Dullung is located in eastern Assam. Teas from this estate produce a highly acclaimed liquor and are known for their unmatched flavor. In the local language, Doomur Dullung means the “fisherman’s bridge”. Graded STGFOP (Special Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe), this tea has the highest proportion of tips. The “special” means it also uses the highest quality leaves in that classification.

I drink this tea almost every morning with milk and three sugar cubes. When I put milk in Indian black tea I usually steep it 5-6 min. This gives it a slight tannic bite, which is softened by the milk.

The dry tea is black full leaves of uniform size with many golden tips and a malty, slightly smoky aroma. In the cup, the tea is honey-amber in color and has a balanced, woody and green herbaceous fragrance. It has a thick mouthfeel (at one teaspoon per six ounce cup steeped three minutes in 205 degree fresh water), is smooth, balanced, and delicate with a pleasingly astringent mild bitterness. The taste includes a touch of saltiness and sweetness, no sourness, and finishes with an even stronger mouthfeel on the palate. Overall, for taste, aroma, and value, this is a superb black tea for mornings or afternoons. I enjoy it with a little sugar and just a teaspoon of milk. It comes from a single estate, Doomur Dulling, in eastern Assam, and is an STGFOP (Special Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe) meaning it has the highest quality leaves of its type and the highest proportion of leaf tips.
