What is Orthodox Tea?

To understand the value of this exquisite product, one must first understand the process. Unlike mass-produced tea processed using the CTC (Crush, Tear, Curl) method, Orthodox Tea is handled with extreme care to preserve the leaf’s integrity.

The production involves a traditional method that mimics hand-processing. The leaves are carefully plucked, withered to remove moisture, rolled to release essential oils, oxidized to develop flavor, and dried. This gentle handling ensures that the leaf remains whole or semi-whole. The result is a multi-layered flavor profile that is delicate, aromatic, and complex—a stark contrast to the strong, often bitter taste of standard commercial teas.

Our Orthodox Tea is produced right here in Bangladesh, utilizing the unique terroir of our lush tea gardens. Our team of experts oversees every step, ensuring that the tea reaching your cup meets the highest international standards.

The Comprehensive Benefits of Orthodox Tea

Beyond its sophisticated flavor profile, Orthodox Tea is a powerhouse of health. Integrating this beverage into your daily routine can yield transformative results for your well-being. Here is a deep dive into the Orthodox Tea benefits that make it a superior choice for the health-conscious individual.

1. A Catalyst for Weight Loss

For those navigating the journey of weight management, Orthodox Tea is a natural ally. Rich in antioxidants and catechins, particularly EGCG (Epigallocatechin Gallate), this tea helps boost metabolism. It encourages the body to burn fat more efficiently, especially during exercise. Unlike synthetic supplements, it offers a gentle, sustainable approach to managing weight without adverse side effects.

2. Powerful Cancer-Fighting Properties

Research suggests that the high concentration of polyphenols in Orthodox Tea plays a role in preventing cell damage. These antioxidants combat free radicals—unstable atoms that can damage cells, causing illness and aging. Regular consumption creates a protective shield, potentially lowering the risk of various types of cancer by inhibiting the uncontrolled growth of cells.

3. Protection Against Throat Infections

The natural antimicrobial properties of Orthodox Tea make it excellent for oral and respiratory health. The catechins present in the tea leaves can inhibit the growth of bacteria and viruses. A warm cup can soothe a sore throat, reduce inflammation, and provide a protective barrier against common infections, making it an essential beverage during seasonal changes.

4. Cognitive Stimulation and Brain Health

In our fast-paced world, mental clarity is a currency. Orthodox Tea contains a balanced amount of caffeine and L-theanine. This combination improves brain function, enhancing mood, vigilance, reaction time, and memory. It stimulates the brain without the “jittery” effects often associated with coffee, providing a state of calm alertness that is perfect for productivity.

5. Anti-Aging and Skin Rejuvenation

Beauty begins from within, and Orthodox Tea in Bangladesh is quickly becoming a beauty secret among the elite. The antioxidants delay the aging process by fighting oxidative stress. Regular consumption helps maintain skin elasticity, significantly reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes. It hydrates the skin and reduces inflammation, giving you a radiant, youthful glow.

6. Aid in Smoking Cessation

Breaking the habit of smoking is incredibly challenging, but Orthodox Tea can offer support. The amino acid L-theanine helps reduce stress and anxiety, which are common triggers for nicotine cravings. Furthermore, the act of brewing and sipping tea provides a healthy oral fixation and a calming ritual to replace the habit of smoking. It also helps repair the oxidative damage caused by smoking, starting the body on a path to recovery.

The Art of Brewing: How to Make Orthodox Tea

To truly honor the quality of these leaves, one must brew them correctly. The preparation of Orthodox Tea is a ritual that demands attention to detail. Unlike dust tea, you cannot simply pour boiling water over these delicate leaves and expect perfection.

The most critical factor is temperature. The right temperature of the water plays a vital role in making a perfect cup of Orthodox Tea. If the water is too hot, it will scorch the leaves, releasing tannins too quickly. This results in a brew that tastes bitter, astringent, and unpleasant. The heat destroys the delicate top notes of the aroma, meaning the tea will lose its taste and smell.

Conversely, water that is too cool will fail to extract the full spectrum of flavors, resulting in a weak, insipid cup.

Step-by-Step Preparation Guide

Follow this guide to unlock the full potential of your tea:

1. Select Your Water: Always start with fresh, cold, filtered water. Avoid re-boiling water, as this depletes the oxygen required to bring out the tea’s aromatic qualities.
2. Heat with Precision: Bring the water to a heat, but do not let it reach a rolling boil if you are preparing green or white Orthodox varieties. Therefore, the most suitable temperature for making tea is 65-70 degrees Celsius. If you do not have a temperature-controlled kettle, boil the water and let it sit with the lid open for about 2-3 minutes to cool down to the target temperature.
3. Warm the Pot: Pour a little hot water into your teapot or cup and swirl it around to warm the vessel. Discard this water. This prevents the water temperature from dropping drastically when it hits a cold pot.
4. Measure the Leaves: Use approximately one teaspoon (2-3 grams) of Orthodox Tea leaves for every cup (200ml) of water. Since our leaves are whole, they take up more volume than dust tea, so be generous.
5. The Steeping Process: Pour the heated water (65-70°C) over the tea leaves. Cover the teapot or cup to retain the heat and aroma.
6. Timing is Key: Patience is a virtue here. For tea leaves, it will take a little longer, 3-4 minutes.
7. • 3 minutes: For a lighter, more delicate flavor.
   • 4 minutes: For a fuller body and stronger character.
   • Avoid over-steeping: Leaving the leaves in for too long will result in bitterness.
7. Strain and Serve: Remove the leaves or strain the tea into your favorite cup. Take a moment to inhale the aroma before your first sip.

Pro Tip: High-quality Orthodox Tea leaves from Tea Shop BD can often be steeped multiple times. The second and third steepings often reveal new, subtle flavor notes that were not present in the first cup.
