Are you wondering, "What is the difference between hand-picked tea and machine-picked tea?"
There seems to be some reason why hand-picking is still practiced even in modern times when machine-picking is the mainstream.
Therefore, I will briefly introduce hand-picked tea, so if you like tea, please read it.

▼ What is the charm of hand-picked tea?
One of the great attractions of hand-picking is its good appearance.
The fresh leaves harvested by hand have few old leaves and tree stems and have the same bud length.
Therefore, the appearance of hand-picking is more beautiful than that of machine-picking.
In addition, you can harvest sprouts that cannot be picked by a machine, so the taste is good.

There are three typical hand-picking methods: folding, scraping, and scraping.
Even now, we still pick by hand in tea gardens on steep slopes where machines cannot enter, and in small tea gardens.
