Step One
Picking
The journey of Black CTC Tea begins with the skilful hands of tea pickers delicately selecting the freshest tea leaves and buds from the tea bushes. These young, tender shoots are the essence of your perfect cup of tea.
Step Two
Weighing & Offloading
Once the tea leaves are handpicked to perfection, they are carefully weighed and offloaded for the next phase of their transformation. Precision at this stage ensures the consistency of flavor in every sip.
Step Three
Withering
In the quiet hours of withering, tea leaves gracefully surrender their moisture, becoming pliable and ready for the next steps. This natural dance with time and air sets the stage for a rich and full-bodied tea.
Step Four
Cutting, Tearing & Curling
As the leaves pass through the rhythmic blades of the CTC machine, they are cut, torn, and curled with precision. This process awakens the tea’s full flavor potential, ensuring a strong, brisk, and robust cup.
Step Five
Fermentation
Gentle hot air caresses the fermented tea leaves as they are carefully dried to preserve their newfound character. This step locks in the essence of the tea, ensuring it’s ready to unfurl its full flavor when steeped in your cup.
Step Six
Drying
Expert hands meticulously sort through the tea, removing any remnants of stems and undesirable elements. What remains is pure, refined Black CTC Tea, ready to infuse your teapot with a symphony of bold flavors and comforting aromas.
Step Seven
Sorting
Leaves are sifted into different sizes, then classified according to appearance and type. When sufficient amount of each grade has been sorted, it is then packed.
