Traditional Hand Made 2023

When tea leaves are Hand-rolled and processed, it is referred to as Handcrafted Artisanal Tea. Such teas are renowned worldwide and are often produced using traditional, time-honored methods, as the use of hands in the process signifies skill and expertise. Handcrafted teas have a strong reputation in Guilan, boasting a history of around 100 years, with many tea farmers engaging in this method. These teas generally exhibit superior quality compared to other Guilan tea productions and possess distinctive flavors and aromas. Handcrafting is reserved only for delicate and young tea leaves. Otherwise, this approach lacks logical justification. Older, dry, and thick leaves are typically processed by machines, whereas the young, delicate leaves are susceptible to risks associated with machine processing. Hand processing is time-consuming and labor-intensive, yet the result can be a highly refined and artisanal tea.
