DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a method for producing tea leaves using tomorrow leaves.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a method for producing tea leaves using asuka leaves as a material, for example, a method similar to known sencha, that is, a steaming process is applied to shoots of tomorrow leaves, followed by coarse kneading and kneading steps. It has been common practice to sequentially apply the resultant, further perform a middle rubbing step of reheating and drying, and then perform a fine rubbing and a final drying step.

[0003]

However, when such a manufacturing method is used, the flavor and aroma peculiar to tomorrow leaves disappear by the steaming and heating and drying steps, and minerals, A, B, There was a problem that vitamins such as groups C and E were worn and destroyed, and these had a detrimental adverse effect on the quality and quality of tea leaves made by Asuka.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, shoots of tomorrow leaves are washed with tap water, lightly dried in the sun, firstly twisted, and then lightly dried in a large number of times and twisted. The above-mentioned operation is repeated until the leaves turn blackish brown to obtain a semi-finished product in the form of a rolled and stretched leaf described above, which is then subjected to final finish drying by the sun, tomorrow leaf tea leaves The purpose of the present invention is to solve such a problem by providing a manufacturing method.

[0005]

[Example] Picking out shoots of tomorrow leaves, washing them with clean water, lightly drying them in the sun, twisting them by hand-fir method, and then lightly drying them by hand and fir-fir method The above-mentioned twisting operation is repeated a number of times until the leaves turn blackish brown, thereby obtaining a semi-finished product in the state of the above-mentioned leaves in a rolled and stretched state, which is then subjected to final finish drying by sunlight to obtain a finished product. . In the twisting operation, a so-called mechanical fibrillation method using a mechanical device can be used instead of the above-described manual fibrillation method.

[0006]

According to the present invention, as described above, the shoots of tomorrow leaves are washed with tap water, lightly dried in the sun, first twisted, and then lightly dried in a large number of times. And by performing the twisting operation repeatedly until the leaves exhibit a black-brown color, to obtain a rolled and stretched semi-finished product of the leaves, and then subject it to final finish drying by sunlight, Since it is dried in the sun without performing steaming and heating drying of the leaves as in the known ones, it is possible to increase the flavor, aroma and the like peculiar to the tomorrow leaves, and it is also possible to increase the minerals contained in the tomorrow leaves. A, B, C, E
It is also possible to reliably avoid the wear and destruction of vitamins such as groups, and the present invention can sufficiently solve the above-mentioned problems by these, and in addition, it can be obtained by this tea leaf Tea also has an excellent advantage that it has remarkable effects on stomachic, appetite enhancement, diuresis and prevention of hangover.
