Assam is known for its heavy monsoon rains and high humidity, creating a greenhouse-like environment that is ideal for tea production. The region is famous not only for its tea but also for its silk production. The tea estates in Assam, such as Banaspati, Hathikuli, Sewpur, Tonganagoan, and Jalinga, are renowned for producing high-quality tea. The cultural significance of tea in Assam is deeply rooted, with tea being an integral part of the local economy and daily life.
