Black Tea the Upper Assam Way: Withered, Clapped, Pan-Heated, Rolled and Fired

Black tea is tea leaf left to darken before it is dried; green tea is heated straight away to stop that. C. A. Bruce, superintendent of tea culture in Assam, wrote down how Chinese tea makers did it there, and Andrew Ure printed his account in 1839: wither in the sun, clap the leaves soft, heat them in iron pans, roll out the juice and dry them crisp over charcoal. The picture: tea production in China, Guangzhou, about 1800: picking on the hills, working the leaf in the sheds, packing chests for the ships.

1

Pick and wither

Pick the youngest leaves, the tip of each shoot with about four leaves. Scatter them thinly in open bamboo baskets in the sun for about two hours, turning them, until they look slightly withered. Cool them indoors for half an hour.

Clap them soft

Clap the leaves gently between your hands and toss them for five to ten minutes, then rest them half an hour. Do this three times, until they feel like soft leather. Bruce was told this gives the black colour.

Roll out the juice

Half-dry over charcoal

Spread the leaves 8–10 cm deep on a bamboo sieve over a clear, smokeless charcoal fire, with a gap in the middle for the hot air. Take them off while still soft and leave them in a basket overnight to deepen in colour.

Sort and fire crisp

Next day sort the leaves into large, middling and small. Dry each sort again, a thin layer at a time, until crisp. Finish them piled deeper over a fire deadened with ash, covered with a second basket, until a leaf breaks at the slightest pinch.
