Assam green tea is quite different from Chinese and Japanese green teas. Where East Asian green teas tend towards delicate, grassy flavours, Assam green tea carries the region’s characteristic boldness — a fuller body, richer colour, and more robust flavour that satisfies even those who normally prefer black tea.
Our Assam Green Tea is sourced from select gardens and minimally processed to retain maximum antioxidant content. The leaves are steamed (not pan-fired) to halt oxidation, preserving the bright green colour and fresh vegetal character.
Green tea is rich in catechins, particularly EGCG — one of the most potent natural antioxidants. Regular consumption is associated with cardiovascular health, healthy metabolism, and cognitive function support. At ₹200 for 100g in Namhah’s signature tin box, this is an accessible daily health habit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How is Assam green tea different from Chinese green tea?
A: Assam green tea is bolder, more full-bodied, and has a richer colour than Chinese green teas. It carries the characteristic Assam robustness, making it a better fit for people who find East Asian green teas too delicate.
Q: Why should I not use boiling water?
A: Boiling water (100°C) makes green tea bitter and astringent. Use water at 75–80°C — let the kettle cool for 3–4 minutes after boiling. This extracts the sweet, grassy flavours without the bitterness.
Q: How many cups per day should I drink?
A: 2–3 cups of green tea per day is widely considered beneficial. Each cup provides a moderate amount of caffeine for alertness plus a concentrated dose of antioxidants.
