CTC teas are often associated with tea bags that may be mundane to drink, but Khongea produces fine quality CTC teas from its lush green fields that are the preferred choice in certain markets. CTC teas are made differently to Orthodox or "Leaf" teas. The process that Cuts, Tears and Curls the leaf after it is rolled, produces an extra strong, thick and spicy tea. CTC teas are very popular in India where they are used in a preparation with aromatic spices to produce what we refer to as "chai". However, even without the herbs and spices, it tastes delicious on its own or with sugar, milk or cream. CTC tea is produced at Khongea throughout the year but during the months of May and June when the leaves are especially succulent, the teas are particularly thick bodied and strong.
100g loose leaf tea pouch.

Scope for improvement

The oxidation needs to be done in subtle manner as the fruity notes are quite ephemeral on the taste buds

2nd flush darjeeling tea

I didnt like it as the liquor is too strong and dark in colour. You have to use less leaves.
