Assam tea, including varieties like Mangalam, has a rich cultural and historical background. The tea plantations in Assam were introduced by the British during the colonial period. The region's fertile soil and hot monsoon season create ideal conditions for tea cultivation. Assam tea has been produced for almost two centuries and is known for its distinctive flavor and aroma, which are attributed to the unique production process and the specific tea plant variety, Camellia sinensis var. assamica. The Mokalbari Tea Estate, where some of these teas are produced, has been renowned for its outstanding teas for nearly 100 years.
