How are teaposy blooming teas made?
Hand picked in spring, the outer leaves are plucked, leaving only the new buds to be used in the tea production process. They are withered and dried at a high temperature. This process completes the production of silver needle loose leaf teas. The loose tea leaves are then sorted and tied with natural cotton threads to make tea bundles. Each bundle weighs the same and contains leaves of the same length. Herbal flowers are sewn into the bundles, shaped and then dried again at a high temperature to complete the handcrafting process. The unscented blooming tea pods are wrapped in cheese cloths and then mixed with freshly picked jasmine flowers to go through a complicated scenting process. They will be dried again at a high temperature, thus removing any remaining impurities. The final tea bulbs then undergo a UV light treatment and are vacuum-sealed immediately after that. Watch the teaposy farm and factory video to see part of the process.
