Pearl Tea is made by hand rolling the selectively plucked single leaf and a bud from the choicest sections of the garden. It is then rolled into a pearl by twirling the leaf around the bud by the experienced workers. During the rolling process the leaves undergo minimal fermentation and they mature into a fully flavoured cup with a deep mesmerizing aroma.
Once the pearls are immersed in hot water they start opening up and you can see the original leaf and a bud. Watch the handcrafted pearls unfurl into a light golden brew with a tantalizing aroma. It is such a sight. The ‘Tea Maker’s Masterpiece’ Pearls is among the best Darjeeling’s.
It is best to brew pearl tea in a transparent cup without an infuser.
