Ukunambitheka

Iphrofayela yokunambitha

Dry Leaf Aroma
Clean, without foreign odors, with a warm base of aged tea. Fresh production — light grassy notes; aged batches — dried fruit sweetness and woody depth.
Liquor Color
From amber-red to deep red-brown (褐红明亮, hèhóng míngliàng), clear and dense, in the best samples — with characteristic ruby shine, resembling amber color.
Spent Leaves
Brown to dark brown, leaf dense, often with petiole inclusions. Texture soft but resilient — sign of complete fermentation.

04 / Tea care

Keep it fresh

Isitsha
Paper or cardboard packaging providing minimal air exchange — optimal. Airtight packaging is suitable only for short-term storage of already stabilized batches. Pressed forms can be stored on wooden shelves.
Humidity
Moderate — about 50–70%. At too low humidity (<40%) tea "freezes" and maturation process slows; at excessive (>75%) — mold risk increases.
Izinga lokushisa lamanzi
15–25 °C, without overheating and direct sunlight. Sharp temperature fluctuations are undesirable.

Imininingwane

Imininingwane

Ama-alkaloid
Caffeine (咖啡碱, kāfēijiǎn) — content moderate, lower than in green teas, thanks to partial degradation during prolonged fermentation. Theobromine and theophylline are also present.
Amino Acids
Including L-theanine (L-茶氨酸) — an amino acid characteristic of tea leaf, providing mild relaxing effect. Total free amino acid content is moderate, since part of them is consumed in Maillard reactions during fermentation.
Amavithamini
B-group vitamins (B₁, B₂, B₆), vitamin C (in small amounts, partially destroyed during fermentation), vitamin PP (nicotinic acid).
