Grain Assala Sultan Green Tea: The Basics Explained<\/h2>\n

Grain Assala, or Al Assala, is a green tea in bean form from Sultan, a company founded in Casablanca in 1936; it is item No. 10 in its line of bean teas. Composed of 100% green tea and sold in a 200-gram box of loose tea, it boasts the highest intensity in the line\u2014a rating of 10\u2014while maintaining a balance between character and smoothness that has earned it a reputation among lovers of authentic flavors. Its deep amber infusion pairs well with sugar, mint, and generous additions. It naturally contains caffeine and can be brewed in a Moroccan teapot\u2014after a preliminary rinse\u2014or served in a cup with a light infusion.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Al Assala: Authenticity Taken to the Next Level<\/h2>\n

In Arabic, \u201cal assala\u201d refers to authenticity\u2014the nobility of that which has remained true to its origins. That is exactly what this tea promises: the taste of Moroccan green tea in its purest form, with no compromise on character. On the Sultan brand\u2019s intensity scale, it ranks at the very top: 10, where the scale ends.<\/p>\n

But intensity alone does not make a good tea, and that is what sets Assala apart from teas that are simply strong: its power is accompanied by a roundness and harmony that prevent it from being harsh. The cup has body and depth, yet the finish remains smooth: a balance between subtlety and intensity that makes it a tea with character, not a harsh one.<\/p>\n

Our Tisane Addict Review of Grain Assala Sultan<\/h2>\n

An intensity level of 10 might have raised fears of a tea with brute force\u2014but that\u2019s not the case at all. Assala is powerful, undeniably, but it\u2019s a carefully crafted power: the dark amber liquor has body and length, the bitterness is well-balanced with a clean finish, and the aftertaste retains that roundness that makes you reach for another glass instead of pushing it away. This is the blend we recommend to lovers of full-bodied tea who find classic varieties too mild, and to those who sweeten generously: at this intensity level, the tea never gets lost behind the sugar.<\/p>\n

Do you love full-bodied teas but are curious about twisted leaves? The Chaara 4011 Sultan Green Tea<\/a> explores the same standard in the \u201cfilament\u201d style: another variety that connoisseurs ask for by its number, with a more immediate expressiveness. Between the No. 10 blend and the 4011 filament, you have the two distinct character profiles of Moroccan tea.<\/p>\n

\n
Aspect<\/span> <\/p>\n

Dark, uniform bubbles; a dark amber, dense, and brilliant liquid.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Taste<\/span> <\/p>\n

Powerful and deep, with body and length, yet a rounded finish: a balance between character and smoothness.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Style<\/span> <\/p>\n

No. 10 in every sense of the word: the most intense tea in the line, for palates that crave a bold tea.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Composition<\/span> <\/p>\n

100% green tea leaves. No added flavorings, no blends.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

How to Appreciate a Coffee Bean with an Intensity Rating of 10<\/h2>\n

Two rules for a tea this strong: rinse, and use just the right amount. Rinsing with boiling water\u2014which is discarded after a few seconds\u2014removes the surface bitterness and opens up the tea pearls; using a light amount per cup prevents the tea from becoming too strong. Finally, a practical tip: a 200-gram package lasts a while, and our guide on the Storing Tea<\/a> explains how to preserve the beans' full character right down to the last teapot.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Strong Mint Tea<\/h3>\n

A tablespoon in the teapot, fresh mint, and a generous amount of sugar: intensity level 10 lets the tea\u2019s full flavor shine through.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Natural, light blend<\/h3>\n

One small teaspoon, water at 80 \u00b0C, 2 minutes: the depth of Assala without oversaturation.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

For large gatherings<\/h3>\n

Its design accommodates large teapots and extra servings: tea for family gatherings that go on and on.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

On several bodies of water<\/h3>\n

The density of the grounds allows for two to three successive brews without the flavor in the cup becoming diluted.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
