Assam is a region of India and a variety and style of black tea. Although the region produces a small number of green tea, Assam green teas are very uncommon; when a tea is referred to as "Assam" it invariably means black tea.

Assam is produced from a large-leafed variety of the tea plant, a different variety from both Chinese teas and teas in the Darjeeling district of India. Occasionally this variety will be used to produce teas in other regions. Assam teas have a unique flavor both due to the low altitude of the Assam region and the special variety of tea plant used.

The aroma of Assam teas is often described as malty.
