I like Assam a lot. It tends to be malty and strong. Sometimes the flavor gets a bit "uninteresting" and I move to Keemun or to a particular Nilgiri I like (Nonsuch Estate). Those are my `big three' black teas currently.
I also like to blend two of the three together, depending upon my mood.
Try a Keemun for sure. And give it a few tries. It did not grab me right away, but I absolutely love it now, alone or blended.
I'm not sure, based on your comments (dark, mellow, not so much tannic taste) whether you would enjoy Darjeelings or Nilgiris, but who knows?
NB: I'm very much a novice at tea.
