PREPARING TEA LEAVES

Tea is a refreshing drink. It makes our mornings attracktive. All our important discussion are made at tea table. This tea is the product of a complicated processing. At first tea leaves are plucked from the plants in the garden and brought to the factory. Afterwards the tea leaves are spread on trays. Then these are dried on trays in large heated rooms. They are kept in these rooms for 20 hours.

These dried leaves are then cut into pieces in a shredding machine. Next, leaves are sent into hot oven on the moving trays. Colour of the leaves change. These leaves are then passed through the sieving machine with different sizes of holes. Thus, we get different sizes of tea-leaves:- big, small and dust. Next, they are packed and sent to the market for sale.
