Preparing Tea Leaves
After harvesting, our tea leaves undergo a meticulous preparation process. This includes withering, rolling, and fermenting, which helps to develop the unique flavors and aromas characteristic of Indian teas.
Withering Process
The withering process involves spreading freshly picked tea leaves in a cool, dry environment to reduce their moisture content. This step helps to develop the tea's natural sweetness and enhances its flavor.
Rolling and Shaping
Rolling the leaves breaks down the cell walls, releasing enzymes that contribute to the tea's flavor and aroma. We use both manual and mechanical methods to ensure even rolling and shaping.
Fermentation
Fermentation is a crucial step in developing the unique flavors of our teas. It involves allowing the leaves to oxidize, which enhances their color and develops complex tastes and aromas.
Production Process
Our production process ensures that each cup of tea is a delightful experience. We use traditional methods combined with modern technology to brew and package our teas, maintaining their freshness and flavor. Whether you prefer a soothing green tea or a robust black tea, our production process guarantees quality.
Drying and Sorting
After fermentation, the tea leaves are dried to reduce their moisture content further. This step ensures that the tea remains fresh and retains its flavor. We then sort the leaves by size and grade to ensure uniform quality.
Blending and Grading
Our expert blenders create exclusive blends by combining different tea leaves to achieve the desired flavor profile. We grade our teas based on factors such as leaf size, color, and aroma to ensure consistency.
Packaging and Storage
After blending and grading, our teas are packaged in airtight containers to preserve their freshness. We store our products in a controlled environment to maintain optimal quality until they reach your doorstep.
