Steep 4-5 minutes.

Like all black tea, Assam requires a high brewing temperature in order to bring out the full, nuanced flavor. Make sure your water’s boiling, and step away from the microwave!
If using milk try a longer steep - up to 7 minutes - before adding the milk.
Try it iced. Brew in 6 oz water, add sweetener (optional!), and pour over ice.
