that drying room probably smells amazing😍
It sure does. I've been to a few tea factories and boy they smell wonderful..
Actually, the tea leaves in the indoor withering step also smells very great, even more aromatic than the one in drying step!
Been to a tea factory. It smells amazing.
I imagine it smells like a combination of rotten farts and explosive diarrhea
@@JohnDoe-vm2di like your Grammas breath!!
Narrator: “An experienced tea master directs every phase of the processing.”
Me: looks for Uncle Iroh
This the one ☝️ lol
Iroh doesn't process though. He's more of a sommelier.
avatar moments
Don’t say tea is just hot leaf juice….
This is the show that made me pursue industrial engineering...... can't believe I'd not found this channel till now! Please continue making and uploading these!!
Well vaishnavi check huggbees video of how its actually made and you will definitely go for PHd
@@roshanviscoro4136on year two of my masters.... So already on that track :-) and huggbees is a great channel!
@@vaintonic is it. Same here. Thats cool.
@@roshanviscoro4136 who is vaishnavi ? Where is vaishnavi? I don't see any vaishnavi
look at me
2:06 I was hoping they'd make a giant cup of tea with that monsterous homemade tea bag 😂
That machine looks like a way to turn a tea master into ground beef.
4:13
That's sounds like something Heston Blumenthal wound do XD
Long as you do t do it the gross white people way with milk and sugar 🤮
I'd drink it....
This video makes a huge but weirdly common mistake. Fermentation is not the same as oxidation. It's not that anywhere else and it's not that in tea. Oxidation has to do with reacting to air (You can also see this in e.g. bruised fruit). Fermentation has to do with microbes. Black tea is not fermented. It is only oxidised. Oolong is also not fermented. Fermented tea does also exist and it forms its own category. Pu erh is an example of fermented tea.
Puerh tea is also damn delicious.
You must really want some validation from people "smart guy"
@@danielhaynes2362 No, but tea is really important for me and I hate it when people get this wrong.
@@danielhaynes2362 Speaking the truth is a problem to you, huh?
@@danielhaynes2362 Insecure much? Are you feeling inferior because some guy on the internet understands basic chemistry terms and doesn't want people making mistakes any Chem 101 student should be able to correct? People who mock intelligent discussion and celebrate ignorance make the world a worse off place. Set your ego aside and you might learn something.
Not sure how many thousands of gallons of black iced tea I’ve drank over the past 25 years, but it would probably keep a factory like this busy for weeks just to supply my consumption so far lol
Know what you mean, love my tea, have been drinking it since i was about 4yrs old
So when I saw the title, in my mind I saw a small cup, water kettle on the stove, with steam coming out. Then a bag of tea placed in the cup, hot water poured in and then text on the screen that said "How Tea is Made" Love these videos btw, can watch them all day and night.
4:32 "this dries the damn tea" why is he so angry at the tea :(
Dries the *damp* tea. I misheard that as first, too.
The tea master brings out the worst in him
@@clo13570 wooosh
It is damp not damn tea and damp means wet
@@teaninja3739 damp the joke rly flew over ur head
Sounded like he said dries the damn tea 😂😂 4:33
Lol that’s what I thought but I try think he said damp tea
Sure did lol
4:32 This dries the damn tea
lol, I thought that so.. then I was like..oh, dries the DAMP tea..
There is only the slightest p sound there
I caught that too
😂
Narrator is a coffee man.
I've watched a bunch of these and the video source used are all over 2 decades old. The processes have greatly improved but it's cool to watch 80s training videos too.
When you realize 1980 was 42 years ago.
@@chrisadams3668thats some fucked up shit to do to me right there 👵
Who’s here while drinking tea?
I love tea, almost all tea(some herbals aren't so yummy). The process is fascinating!
wonder at what point in history someone said "we're going to dry that, and then soak it in water, then drink the water" because those tea leave plants don't look much different then a plant you'd put in your garden as a privacy hedge.
The first step (putting leaves in hot water) was probably discovered fairly early, as it's something people have done to extract medicinal properties from plants for ages. All the subsequent steps (the drying, oxidation, etc.) Were probably gradually explored as tea grew in popularity as a beverage.
The legend says that ta mo (an Indian monk who traveled to china for spread buddhism) was meditating close to a tea Bush (obviously he didn't know what this Bush was) while he was boiling some water to drink, and some leaves accidentally fell from that bush to the pot, then he tasted that infusion and voila: tea was born
@@carlossanchez-us9dl I remember a similar story, but where it was the Emperor who accidentally got a tea leaf in his hot water
All those myths are an amalgamation of what happened everywhere in history when new foods and ways of preparing it were discovered, to tell the story quickly or have a story. People have an innate need to have an explanation for things.
It has most likely been the result of a proces of trial and error. First to discover if it is poisonous, then if it's edible. Once we got fire, we could roast things. Once we could make water tight, fire resistant pot and boil water, people realised through the same methods that cooked food is often much better and easier to eat. Water also gets flavour from cooking food, so other things might flavour water. People test everything that is safe to eat, like leaves from this plant. They figured out the top parts were the best and discovered new ways of preparing them to get certain flavours.
It is always a process with many people involved, not a single event.
it took thousands of years to mold tea drinking into what we have today. it started basically with hot leaf juice, possible as food, then people realized that the shit's fantastic as a soup but the leaves taste like garbage. then it was time for matcha around i believe tang dynasty. later on storage and fermentation methods were discovered and tea basically became what it is today, aroudn song-yuan dynasties. (i might have remembered some details wrong)
Here I am at 1am watching a video on tea and I'm drinking ice tea. I need to go to sleep. I do love ice tea and cold coffee in the morning. Shalom
I am enjoying a fantastic cup of green tea right now, and I was wondering how exactly the leaves were formed into small balls (pellets). This video presented that information spot on. Now I know!! And it was totally different than what I had expected!!
4:32, this dry the damn tea....cant unhear it
Damp tea
My tea leaves formed the shape of a black man which means that the sun will fall into earth.
I won't take my tea for granted. Ever.
Well aren't you fucking conscientious
That looked like the 2 men were rolling up one enormous joint.
The world needs it to calm down right now
That's because it was Cheech & Chong maaannn!
Made my eyes red just watching it.
@@videolabguy Ehh got the ol' Chinese eyes maan!
Snoop Dogg : **invest**
0:57 suspicious plant spotted
Lipton is the "dust" left over
Well... you're not wrong
Black tea in Turkey is both cheaper than Lipton in the states, and much higher quality.
forreal though. after whole leaf teas are processed, the leftover bits are bought off by large tea companies like lipton and tetley, who then bag it up and sell it.
@@cileft011 I unfortunately bought Lipton loose leaf... pure dust, almost unusable. I just use it for when I don't care how my tea tastes and just need hydration.
@@ashleycalhoun1824 Have you tried water? I heard water works pretty well for that whole "hydration" thing.
Its way different process than i ever expected. Respect!
I hope everyone who sees is having a good day and if you aren’t i hope it gets better soon 💖
Happy Friday!!! :D
no u!
Shut up
❤️
I would never have thought that making tea is so interesting
Sips Tea*....
Wow great explanation.... Thankyou💕
I heard that it smells so good in these factories
This is uncle Iroh's favorite video
Sri lanka 🇱🇰 produce best tea in the world 👍
^
Quite a process! I had no idea. Great vid.
Tea makes my bloody cramps feel well.
Tea is so good 👍 😋
Once I really listened, I realized he said damp, but I thought he said drying the damn tea.
Wow! What a process.
Very fascinating. 💚💚
Fermentation is not quite the same as oxidation. The way it's used here is a bit incorrect. Enzymatic browning is a better term for what is happening in the leaves.
(Uncle iroh) "more tea please"
1:50 - *The workers roll a giant spliff to consume in their lunch break.*
*Drinking tea while watching this*
Sri Lankan Ceylon tea is the finest and the best tea in the world 🇱🇰
I plant my own tea bushes and make my own tea.
There is a correction.....The Oolong and Black tea gets their colour from oxidation not fermentation. There is a wide spread confusion.
I caught that too. Fermentation is a thing with some teas, though (ex pu erh)
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oolong.
4:30 "This dries the damn tea" ? :)
Damp.
My most fav drink!
Tea master's satisfaction is important .
At the beginning where the narrator said green tea is oxidized and fermented the least that is a slight misstep. White tea is and was not mentioned in this video. But over all good basic explanation
don’t anger the tea master
Ok I want some tea after watching that.
1:43 the size of blunt I would need to not want to die for 5 minutes
This video is really well done! I love how detailed you went into the tea-making process. However, I have to say, I wonder if we focus too much on the traditional methods. Personally, I think modern techniques can also produce some amazing flavors that aren't getting enough attention. What do you all think?
It looks like the production of an extremely expensive sort of tea.
LOVE Oolong!! ❤️🥰❤️
1:48 they are rolling a fat doobie
Michael Palin visited an Indonesian tea farm for his BBC miniseries, Full Circle. Fascinating stuff, watch it if you can find it.
Loved from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Tea is good,i like tea,can make me low stress and enjoy when i drink
I am from the South, so sweet tea is a staple down here! I know it's made from black tea (orange pekoe and pekoe cut). I'd love to see a video about that!
I learned so much in this video. Thank you.
I drink green tea every day, thanks for this
I love tea!
damn that's a lot of steps and processing just for tea
that's why good tea is expensive. i love them
@@xianshi8896 i was also considering how tea has been consumed for thousands of years so Im curious how far they went to brew the finest tea several thousands of years ago as well compared to today
@@mrxxbrian we today have the benefit of thousands of years of experimentation and innovation
@@xianshi8896 Nah there are teas that is super cheap
@@mrxxbrian I bet back then they just dried the leaf and then drink it
Awesome video👍👍👍👍
This dries the damn tea 4:33
damp tea？
Jangan biarkan apa yang berlaku semalam menghantui hidup anda hari ini
One huggggee joint being rolled
Tea Master: " I pity the fool that confuses oxidation with fermentation!"
I love black tea with cardamom
1:40 lol they're rolling a joint
damn tea
actually, that is Taiwan style Oolong tea making process
I enjoy tea
I also like smelling tea bags
Rolling the world's biggest joint at 1:52
They are stepping on the tea with his shoes on😵😵💫
Should I use a filter and hot water, like coffee when making tea granules? And how much granules per one cup(6 ounces)
the bamboo tray is called 'nanglo' in Nepal
Oolong reminds me of going out for good chinese food.
Me too!
Stewie: I got my tea cups now all I need is a t-bag... no where I can find one lol
God i love tea
1:52 a few days late science channel 😂😂
Loved this videos
Valuable knowledge
Amazing. I love black tea to make the best tea you have to boil the water for at least five minutes than add the tea than let it set for 10 minutes covering the tea pot with a cloth to prevent the heat from going out
They managed to screw it up in first 20 seconds: "black tea is greatly fermented". Black tea is oxidized, not fermented, I would think if you make a video of tea you would check the basics before shooting the video.
See! You can reuse tea bags!
I want to be a tea master.
British: we're the world's authority on tea, we all know yorkshire gold is the best!
All of Asia: is that so? those brits are so cute about their tea 😏
We (the west) probably learned everything about tea from them.
i'm guessing you don't know the history of how tea became to be in the UK
@@1996connor from Asia via the Dutch
Pfft... everyone knows the most delicious tea comes from Long Island!
British tea sucks. Gong fu is the only way to go.
china: *invents tea*
britain: dibs
Another amazing, pleasing & captivating video!! 😍👌
