The Orthodox Difference: A Legacy of Craftsmanship

What sets Fenning Orthodox Tea apart is its adherence to a time-honored, traditional manufacturing process that prioritizes quality over quantity. Unlike mass-produced CTC (Crush, Tear, Curl) teas, orthodox tea is an art form. The journey begins with the manual harvesting of the tenderest two leaves and a bud from the Camellia sinensis plant. This selective plucking ensures that only the most flavorful and aromatic parts of the plant are chosen.

Once harvested, the leaves undergo a gentle, multi-step process:

1. Withering: The leaves are carefully spread out to reduce their moisture content, making them soft and pliable for the next stage.
2. Rolling: Instead of being crushed by machines, the leaves are delicately rolled. This traditional method twists the leaves, breaking down their cell walls to initiate oxidation without damaging their integrity. This crucial step is what defines the complex flavor profile and elegant appearance of the final product.
3. Oxidation: The rolled leaves are left to rest in a climate-controlled environment, allowing them to oxidize. This natural enzymatic reaction turns the leaves from green to a deep coppery brown, developing the rich, mellow flavors characteristic of premium black tea. Our master tea makers monitor this process with expert precision, knowing the exact moment to halt it to achieve the perfect balance.
4. Drying: Finally, the leaves are gently dried to lock in their exquisite aroma and flavor, preserving them for your enjoyment.

This gentle, artisanal treatment is what makes Fenning Orthodox Tea a truly premium product. It safeguards the delicate nuances of the tea leaf, resulting in a brew that is smoother, more complex, and more aromatic than its machine-processed counterparts.

A Commitment to Nature and Community

At Tea Shop BD, we believe that the finest tea is a product of a healthy environment and a thriving community. Our Fenning Orthodox Tea is a reflection of this core philosophy. We source our tea leaves directly from small, independent tea farmers across Bangladesh. These dedicated growers cultivate their tea plants with immense care, often using sustainable and organic farming practices passed down through generations.

By partnering with these small farmers, we ensure several key things:

• Traceability: We can trace every batch of tea back to the very garden it came from, guaranteeing its origin and quality.
• Sustainability: We support agricultural methods that respect the local ecosystem and promote biodiversity. Our teas are natural, and the plants are grown from non-genetically modified seeds, ensuring you receive a product that is pure and untainted.
• Empowerment: This direct-from-farmer model ensures that the growers receive fair compensation for their hard work, empowering them and their communities.

When you choose Fenning Orthodox Tea, you are not just buying a high-quality tea; you are investing in a sustainable future for Bangladeshi tea farming and supporting the artisans who make it all possible.

Tasting Notes: A Journey for the Senses

Preparing and tasting Fenning Orthodox Tea is an immersive experience. From the appearance of the dry leaf to the final note on your palate, every element tells a story of its careful creation.

• Leaf: Before brewing, observe the beautiful, stylish leaves. They are taupe-blackish in color, semi-rolled into long, elegant forms, with many secure, silvery tips visible—a clear sign of a high-quality, fine plucking.
• Infusion: As the hot water awakens the leaves, they unfurl gracefully, releasing a fragrant aroma. The resulting infusion displays a stunning light black and rich brown coloration, a visual promise of the depth of flavor to come.
• Liquor: The brewed tea, or liquor, is a brilliant, light black with a captivating clarity. The first sip reveals a smooth, mellow body with a complex character. You may notice subtle notes of malt and honey, with a clean, refreshing finish that leaves no bitterness. The flavor is layered and nuanced, inviting you to savor each moment.

Please note that your personal tasting experience can be influenced by factors such as water quality, mineral content, and your brewing vessel. We encourage you to explore and find the perfect brew for your own palate.

The Art of Brewing: A Guide to Perfection

To unlock the full spectrum of flavor and aroma in your Fenning Orthodox Tea, we recommend following this simple brewing guide.

• Quantity of Tea: Use 1 to 2 grams of tea leaves (approximately one teaspoon) per cup (about 200ml or 6-8 oz).
• Water Temperature: The ideal water temperature for this delicate orthodox tea is between 80°C and 85°C (176°F – 185°F). Boiling water can scorch the leaves and create a bitter taste. To achieve this, simply bring water to a boil and let it cool for about two minutes before pouring.
• Steeping Time: Steep the tea leaves for 3 to 4 minutes. A shorter steep will yield a lighter, more delicate flavor, while a longer steep will produce a stronger, more robust brew. We recommend starting with 3 minutes and adjusting to your preference.
• The Perfect Serve: After steeping, strain the leaves and enjoy. For the purest experience, we suggest drinking Fenning Orthodox Tea without sugar or milk. Its natural sweetness and complex flavor profile are best appreciated on their own.

For an enhanced experience, try pairing it with complementary flavors. A touch of honey, a slice of lemon, or a stick of cinnamon can create a wonderfully aromatic and comforting drink. Adding cloves or even a sliver of fresh ginger can also provide a warming, spicy note that is perfect for cooler days.
