 In 1993, about 155 years after those first tea arrived in London, Assam's 2000 gardens produced a record 444,231.8 tons. Today, tea is grown on both sides of the largest black tea-producing region which is the Brahmaputra Valley. This valley lies 120 miles east of Darjeeling and Borders of China, Burma, and Bangladesh. The tea growing areas in this valley benefited from a very high rainfall about 79 to 118 inches per year. During this time of heavy rains, the temperature rises to approximately 103 degrees Fahrenheit. This resembles a greenhouse effect. Because of this temperature which is a combination of humidity and heat arrives the finest varieties of tea in the world called Assam tea. Assam tea has different categories namely first flush assam, second flush assam, assam blend, and assam green. by: TheTeaAvenue
