Assam Hatialli FTGFOP 1 CL TPY SF - Option: 500 g

Hatialli in direct translation from the local dialect means "the elephant is coming". A large population of elephants have always lived in this area, attracted by the high quality of the vegetation and fruits. Over the past few decades, teas from the Hatialli Garden have developed a cult following and become a legend among Assam teas. Not for nothing are they considered the queen of the Jokai Group of Tea Gardens. The total area of the garden is 419.73 hectares, tea is planted on approximately one third of it and around one million kg of tea is produced here annually. After opening a bag of Hatialli tea, someone smells apricots, someone citrus, the fruity elements are undeniable. However, each presents a typical and unmistakable malt aroma that opens up in several layers. It is an ideal morning tea that is easy to get used to. The very delicate fruit component in the aroma and above all in the taste defines an imaginary edge that limits the overall taste and thus offers the possibility to grasp it better.

The designation FTGFOP1 stands for "Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe #1" and describes the quality of the tea leaves. These are the highest quality leaves and buds. There is a pun going around among tea enthusiasts that "FTGFOP" stands for "Far Too Good For Ordinary People".
