Their Assam Pekoe is born from the skillful harvest of hand-picked leaves from the grand Camellia sinensis assamica shrubs, with pickers who prioritize precision over volume, ensuring an unparalleled quality in every leaf.

Committed to Earth-Friendly Practices

Heritage Tea is deeply rooted in sustainable, eco-conscious values, championing the use of local vermicompost to cultivate their teas without chemical additives. The visionary behind it all, Rajen Baruah, not only cultivates these teas but also educates and mentors the local farming community, advocating a progressive path toward ever-improving tea practices.

Offered in 2-ounce packages, Heritage Assam Pekoe is not merely a beverage—it's an heirloom of Assam's rich tea culture, inviting you to partake in its storied tradition and dynamic spirit.
