EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Oxidising Tea, India," transports us back in time to the early 20th century and the intricate process of tea oxidisation in the lush tea gardens of India. The image, captured in 1912, offers a rare glimpse into the historical cultivation of this globally beloved beverage. Tea leaves, carefully plucked from the verdant hills, are spread out on large, woven trays. The leaves are then subjected to a meticulous process of withering, rolling, and oxidation to develop their unique flavors and aromas. In this photograph, we see the oxidation stage in progress. The leaves are being gently agitated by workers, exposing them to the air and allowing the oxidation process to continue. The oxidation process is crucial in the production of black tea, which accounts for the majority of tea consumed worldwide. During oxidation, the leaves undergo chemical reactions that result in the development of complex flavors and aromas. The process is a delicate balance, with the leaves being monitored closely to ensure the desired level of oxidation is achieved. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and tradition of tea cultivation in India, which dates back over 2,000 years. The country is the world's largest tea producer, with Assam and Darjeeling being two of the most famous tea-growing regions. The intricate process of tea production, from plucking to oxidation, has remained largely unchanged for generations, making it a living piece of history. The photograph also invites us to reflect on the cultural significance of tea, not just as a popular drink, but as an integral part of daily life and social customs in many parts of the world. Whether enjoyed as a morning pick-me-up or an afternoon relaxation, tea continues to bring people together and provide a moment of respite in our busy lives.
