I believe the answer is:

assam

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tea comes from there' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'the twit having morning' is the wordplay.
'the twit' becomes 'ass' (I've seen this in another clue).
'having' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'morning' becomes 'am' (as in 12:00 AM).
'ass'+'am'='ASSAM'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for assam that I've seen before include "Indian province" , "North-east Indian tea state" , "N East Indian state?" , "State in northeastern India" , "Tea-growing region" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
