Six dedicated processing steps ensuring minimal oxidation and maximum natural catechin retention.
Plucking green tea by hand is a traditional art. Skilled tea pluckers harvest the tender two leaves and unopened apical bud at daybreak, ensuring minimal mechanical bruising to prevent premature oxidation.
Only the freshest mountain flushes are brought immediately to the estate processing center.
Fresh leaves are subjected to brief, precise high-temperature steam or pan-heating. This vital step de-activates polyphenol oxidase enzymes, halting fermentation and locking in the vibrant emerald green color and natural antioxidants.
Preserves the delicate grassy sweetness and high EGCG catechin content unique to fine green tea.
Steamed leaves are immediately spread onto ventilated cooling beds with circulating cool air. This rapidly dissipates surface heat and prevents the leaves from stewing, maintaining pristine jade color and crisp floral notes.
Rapid thermal reduction ensures the cellular structure stays firm and ready for shapely rolling.
Cooled leaves are loaded onto circular rolling tables that twist the leaves into tight, needle-like curls. This gentle pressure breaks open surface oil glands, allowing aromatic juices to coat the leaf for an exquisite infusion bouquet.
Carefully modulated rolling pressure prevents tearing while optimizing extraction speed.
The rolled green tea is fired in continuous rotary drum dryers under strictly calibrated clean hot air. This brings the final moisture content below 3–4%, stabilizing the fragile leaf and developing a subtle toasted finish.
Imparts longevity and locks in the quintessential sweet vegetal taste of Dooars green tea.
Sifter sorts tea into pieces of various roughly equal sized teas. The dried green tea is sorted into whole leaf, broken, and fannings grades. Every batch is evaluated by master sommeliers for aroma, liquor clarity, and infusion hue before packaging.
Sealed into airtight, moisture-proof protective packaging to deliver farm-fresh aroma across India.
