Our Jin Jun Mei is meticulously crafted in the traditional tea-growing region of Tongmuguan, Wuyi Mountain, Fujian Province. The high-altitude tea gardens provide the perfect environment for producing top-quality tea buds. The unique production process involves hand-picking the finest buds and carefully processing them to maintain their delicate flavor and aroma. This dedication to quality ensures that Jin Jun Mei stands out as a premium black tea.
Under controlled temperature and humidity conditions, the tea leaves are evenly spread out, allowing moisture to evaporate and enzyme activity to increase. This moderate promotion of enzyme activity helps to release some moisture and dissipate the grassy smell, preparing the leaves for subsequent processing steps.
The process involves applying external force to break and lighten the tea leaves, rolling them into strips and reducing their volume while disrupting their structure. Additionally, some tea juices are extruded and adhere to the surface of the leaves, significantly enhancing the tea's flavor intensity.
Fermentation is the process in which tea leaves undergo enzymatic oxidation, resulting in the formation of colored substances and the gradual development of floral and fruity aromas. Key factors influencing fermentation include temperature, humidity, duration, and the moisture content of the leaves.
Drying is the final step in the initial processing of tea leaves. It involves evaporating excess moisture, deactivating enzyme activity, and halting enzymatic oxidation. This process also promotes thermochemical reactions within the tea leaves, enhancing their aroma and flavor.
All our tea is sourced from China, directly from their original regions. You can refer to our “Direct from the Origin” section for more details. We work closely with local farmers and tea factories to ensure that every leaf meets the highest standards.
