What does "Al Assala," the name of this Sultan tea, mean?

Al Assala means «authenticity» in Arabic: faithfulness to one’s origins, the nobility of that which has not been altered. A name that says it all for this tea, which delivers the full, unadulterated flavor of Moroccan green tea—item No. 10 in the Sultan line.

What does intensity level 10 of the Grain Assala Sultan mean?

This is the strongest expression in the Sultan line: no other blend from the house is stronger. In practical terms, the liqueur is deep and full-bodied, with a rich mouthfeel and a long finish, but the balance of the blend ensures a round finish, without any harshness.

What does Grain Assala Sultan green tea taste like?

A powerful, full-bodied cup with a deep amber liquor that combines character and smoothness: the initial taste is crisp, the body is dense, and the finish is round and harmonious. This tea asserts itself without ever becoming harsh, even when generously sweetened.

Who is Grain Assala intended for, rather than another Sultan grain?

For lovers of bold tea who find classic blends too mild, and for those who sweeten their mint tea generously: at intensity level 10, this tea holds its own no matter how much sugar you add. For a milder cup in your daily routine, the other blends in the line take over.

How do you prepare Grain Assala without it tasting bitter?

First, rinse the grains with boiling water and discard the first batch of water: this step removes the surface bitterness and opens up the grains. Next, brew a light infusion in a cup (one teaspoon, water at 80 °C, 2 minutes); in a Moroccan teapot, the sugar and mint naturally balance the flavor.

How long does a box of Grain Assala last?

When stored properly away from air, light, moisture, and odors, whole-leaf green tea retains its character for a very long time: the rolled beads naturally protect the leaves. Close the box tightly after each use or transfer the beads to an airtight container: your 200 g will retain its full flavor right down to the last cup of tea.

Ambar Sultan Grain: The Basics

Made exclusively from green tea, Grain Ambar comes in the form of rolled leaves. These unfurl during steeping and produce an amber-colored infusion with a subtle character. Its flavor profile is particularly well-suited for mint tea, without requiring a very sweet preparation. Like all green teas, it naturally contains caffeine.

A versatile tea for the teapot

Grain Ambar plays a central role in the Sultan line: it’s more assertive than a very light tea, yet more approachable than a very full-bodied variety. This medium intensity makes it easy to adjust the strength, the amount of mint, and the sugar to suit your household’s preferences.

To compare profiles, check out the Assala Sultan Grain, more intense, or the Grain Ambar with Oregano, flavored according to a different tradition.

Preparing Grain Ambar

DosageFor a cup: 1 small teaspoon. For a teapot: adjust the amount based on the volume and desired strength.

TemperatureWater at around 80 °C preserves the balance of green tea.
