Chongqing Tuo Tea

During the production process, artisans carefully select medium to high quality sun-dried, roasted and stir-fried green gross tea as raw materials. Each of these teas carries its own unique aroma and flavor after being baptized by the sun, warmed by drying, and warmed by stir-frying.

These selected leaves are then meticulously blended and sifted using time-honored traditional techniques combined with modern production equipment to ensure that each piece of tea is of the best quality. Next, the tea leaves are shaped to prepare them for the subsequent pressing steps.
