Assam tea is has a rich body, and malty. I pretty much describe any tea where maltiness is the predominant flavor as assam-like. It can have a heavy mouthfeel, otherwise known as astringency. If you brew it too hard, it can be harshly bitter, which can easily happen with tea bags. Most generic black tea is typically based off of Assam. I don't typically add milk and/or sugar because I prefer the flavors of straight, unadulterated black tea, but milk/sugar makes unpleasant black tea, pleasant.
