Jasmine Tea

Drying Process I
The Green tea is heated by using the Rotary machine drier/Fluid bed drier at a temperature of 90°   -125° C.This process produces "Cou-Cui", which is blackish-brown in color with a water content of 3-5%.

 

Flower Selection Process
The Jasmine flowers used should be those that are ready to blossom and extra efforts are undertaken to minimize the usage of flower buds. This selection is carried out to ensure the maximum absorption of the aroma of the jasmine flowers into the tea leaves

 

Humidifying Process
The purpose of this process is to condition the Green Tea for maximum absorption of the aroma of the Jasmine flowers. Increasing water content by 20% by spraying water onto the tea. This humidifying process is carried out in the morning and afternoon and then the tea is spread out to form a layer about 15-20 cm thick. Afterwards, the Jasmine flowers are mixed into the tea.

 

Drying Process II
This process is conducted by using an ECP drier (endless chain pressure drier) at a temperature of 110° -125° C for 45-60 minutes. The water content is then reduced to 4-6%.
