PRODUCTION PROCESS
Controlled process through which moisture content in fresh leaves is reduced using dry air.
Cut, tear and curling (CTC) of the leaf. Breaking of the leaf cells allows oxidation to start.
The crushed leaves are spread on perforated belt under controlled conditions of temperature, humidity, and aeration. Chemicals in crushed leaves react in the presence of air turning the tea golden brown.
The fermented tea is dried using hot air which stops the fermentation process and imparts the black colour of tea.
Tea leaves are separated by size and quality using mesh screens. It ensures consistency, improves flavor, and helps match products to market grades.
Tea is packed in special durable sacks ready for transporting, export and sale.
