About This Tea

Himalayan Pearls are steamed and rolled green tea with a captivating floral and lightly toasted aroma. Dark green, chlorophyll-rich, one or two leaves and a bud are plucked to make this special tea. Its smooth green liquor has well-developed notes of artichoke hearts and dried magnolia. As the tender leaves unfurl, delicate hints of bean sprouts, pine nuts, and steamed asparagus develop. This tea’s captivating aroma and liquor will make you want to enjoy the tea more.

Tender one or two first leaves and a bud from select bushes with darker green leaves, which generally have a higher chlorophyll content, are selected from the garden for the preparation of our steamed Green Pearls. The leaves are withered gently for around 2 hours under cool conditions with good air circulation, then jet steamed under perforated trays. The newly steamed leaves are immediately cooled and rolled with a machine roller for 30 minutes. The leaves are allowed to rest for around 30 minutes and then shaped into small pearls. Shaping is carried out in a shaping machine and then finally dried in an oven dryer for around 1.5 hours at 110 Degree Celsius.

How it’s made
Himalayan Green Pearls is a premium loose leaf green tea, crafted from tender first leaves and a bud selected from tea bushes with darker green leaves, known for their high chlorophyll content. These select leaves are carefully handpicked to ensure the finest quality, comparable to esteemed varieties like Chinese Gunpowder Green Tea and other premium green teas. The process begins with a gentle two-hour withering under cool conditions with excellent air circulation, allowing the leaves to retain their freshness and vibrant character. The leaves are then jet-steamed on perforated trays, a traditional method that locks in their antioxidants and preserves their bright green color. Immediately after steaming, the leaves are cooled and rolled for 30 minutes using a machine roller to enhance their texture and release their natural flavors. Following a 30-minute resting period, the leaves are expertly shaped into small pearls using a shaping machine and then dried in an oven at a precise 110°C for 1.5 hours. This meticulous process produces Green Pearls with a distinctive appearance and a flavor profile that’s both refreshing and satisfying. When brewed, Green Pearls unfurl beautifully, revealing a lively, light green liquor with a smooth, grassy flavor and delicate vegetal notes. Perfect for those who appreciate the robust character of Chinese Gunpowder Green Tea or the finesse of other premium steamed green teas, Green Pearls is a must-try for tea enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
