The Dikom garden lies in the heart of the Assam tea region, and is one of the oldest gardens bordering the River Brahmaputra. A local tribe, the Bodo-Kacharies, came up with the name when they found that the quality of the water was truly unique, tasting pleasantly sweet and smooth. The word di in their language means water. The regularly rolled black leaves give an infusion that in aroma and taste is reminiscent of citrusy fruit juice.

Preparation guidelines: Allow 1 teaspoon of tea for each 1.5 dl of water and one more for the teapot. Add freshly boiled water and leave it to infuse for 3-5 minutes. Sieve and serve. Suitable for 1 infusion.
