Taiwanese Tea: How it’s Picked and Processed | Straight to the Source Ep.5

For centuries, Taiwanese tea has been enjoyed by tea lovers all around the globe. To ensure quality, the best Taiwanese tea is always handpicked by skilled workers. The top-tier tea leaves are the ones that just sprouted, which usually come in the form of two tender leaves on one sprout. To achieve the ideal flavor, the leaves have to be processed within 24 hours, which involves sun-drying, turning, rolling, fermentation and frying.
