UrbanZen Tea uses high quality hand picked tea leaves from the winter and spring seasons. The high altitude, the plantations perfect exposure to the sun in the daytime, and ideal moisture in the evening set the best growing conditions in Taiwan.

The tea leaves go through a natural six steps process to convert them to green tea leaves:

  1. Drying in the sun
  2. Mixed in dryings trays
  3. Placed in a roaster at 350 degrees to remove the natural odour
  4. They are placed in a machine for twisting
  5. They are placed in a baker at 100 degrees till 40% dry
  6. Hand-twisted in linen cloth to finalize
