New Year Tea !! pan fried tea

I made tea leaves of pan fried tea at Shibamoto tea estate

in Makinohara, Shizuoka.

This year's leaves were yellow.

 

 

First, tea leaves were fried in the pan.

 

 

When weight of tea leaves were half of raw leaves,

tea leaves were rolled.

 

 

Then tea leaves were fried and rolled repeat 3 times.

The taste was so strong and mild !!

 

Beautiful green !

Thank you for all.
