Kinellan Tea Factory

If you have any questions, go to this factory. Others have no comparison. The guide is great! We also had a buffet lunch there, 1000 rupees per person (with unlimited tea!), which was delicious. The best thing about the factory is that there is a path that goes straight from behind the factory building to the tea garden and to the top of Ramboda Falls! Don’t miss this. The walk is not that hard, there are plenty of paths to choose from. You can follow them on Google Maps!

Follow the road sign up the mountain, climb to the top of the mountain full of tea trees, see a large white and blue building that is the tea factory~ there is a notice at the entrance of the factory that says: visit the tea factory from the top floor~ reach the top floor, it is originally to pay first and then the staff will take you to visit and explain~ pay 300 rupees (14 yuan), changed to the factory clean robe, was told that I could not take pictures, and began the tea tour~~~ The factory interpreter took us to visit each place and explained the tea making steps~ The tea making steps are almost like this: after picking tea in the tea farm and weighing it, it is sent to the factory. Pour into the trough on the top floor, there is a layer of iron mesh in the middle of the trough to place tea, one side of the trough is a large fan to ventilate the trough, blow the tea into leaves with little water~~~ After the air-dried tea is sent downstairs, put into a cylindrical circle back and forth machine pressure~~~ machine tea After the pressure is completed, it will be automatically transported to the box next to it. The staff saw that the box was full and poured the tea after the pressure to the next shelf for fermentation. There is also a fan blowing water mist not far from the shelf to keep the humidity ~~~ After the fermentation is completed, The staff sent it to the next layer of the machine for drying~~~ After drying, the tea will automatically fall into the sieve downstairs, and then the four layers of sieve will shake, shake, shake~ The tea on the top layer is Pekoe (big leaves), The second layer is shaken out of FBOP (medium leaves with sprouts), the third layer is shaken out of BOPsp (more fine leaves), of course, the bottom is FFsp (super fine tea end)~~~ categorized, packed into the same size paper bag sent to the factory auction~~~ Visited, Then go to the top floor, there are Sekoe, FBOP, BOP, FFsp four kinds of black tea to try, meaning that after drinking, you will know what kind of black tea you want to buy to go home~~~Sekoe whether it is the color of tea soup or the taste is lighter than other kinds of light, the smell is fragrant, there is no bitter taste, Slightly sweet~~~ There is a cool feeling at the entrance of FBOP. After a short period of bitterness and astringency, the bitter taste completely disappeared. The sweet taste is overflowed with the cool feeling. The fragrance of tea leaves in the mouth~ The cool feeling is not as exciting as Arabs with mint. But the very natural integration with the tea flavor, very good black tea~~~ BOPsp cool feeling has weakened, and the bitter tea taste has been strengthened, but after a period of time, the bitter taste still disappears and the aftertaste is slightly sweet, the aroma stays short~~~FFsp color is the heaviest, There is almost no cool feeling, the bitter taste of tea is strengthened again, the bitter taste is weak after the bitter taste disappears~~~ In fact, if the four teas are not put together to compare, they are very good to drink~ But in contrast, I really like pure FBOP~ And FFsp is the roadside stall and the Arab world's favorite The tea powder, if you add a moderate amount of sugar in it, will lead to a cool feeling, and the bitter taste will be balanced~
