Assam Tea Traders — Restaurant in Assam

Walking through the streets of Guwahati, I visited many of the popular spots listed online, only to leave feeling underwhelmed—until I stumbled upon Assam Tea Traders. This hidden gem, run by a team of brothers who have inherited their tea wisdom from their father, is not just a store but an immersive experience.

The moment I stepped inside, it was clear they weren’t just in it for the business. Their passion for tea and their dedication to quality shine through in everything they do. They create an environment that feels less like a shop and more like a masterclass on the finest teas of Assam.

Every sip during the hour I spent there felt like a revelation. Their teas are rare, authentic, and a true representation of Assam’s legacy—not just a commercial product you’d find anywhere online. Walking out, I couldn’t help but feel immense gratitude—not just for the cups of hot tea I savored but for the knowledge and authenticity they so generously shared.

"Assam Tea Traders is truly a hidden gem for every tea lover. The moment you step inside, you can sense the authenticity and passion for tea. The shelves are filled with a wide variety—Assam CTC, orthodox, green tea, Darjeeling, and more, each carrying its own unique aroma and flavor. The quality is unmatched; every cup brewed from their tea feels rich, strong, and refreshing, just the way Assam tea should be.

Highly recommended for locals as well as tourists who want to taste the true essence...
