For those who do not know, CTC is a method of processing tea leaves, so that they can be packaged and sent to the market for sale. India happens to be the second-largest producer of tea in the whole world, (first being China), therefore there is always an incessant need to produce the tea leaves in a quick manner. <a title=\"CTC tea\" href=\"https:\/\/teafloor.com\/tea\/type\/ctc-tea\">CTC tea<\/a> is a very commonly used method of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tea_processing\" rel=\"nofollow\">tea processing<\/a> that is quick and works on large quantities of leaves at the same time. It is a capital-intensive technique that employs huge machines.<\/p>\n<h2>How is CTC Tea Made?<\/h2>\n<p>In this process, the tea leaves are thrown into large cylindrical rollers with hundreds of teeth. These machines work to process and pulverize the tea leaves into homogenous-looking small pellet-like structures which we know as tea. It is a fast method of producing large quantities of teas and meets the market\u2019s demands Since the brew is processed in bulk, it is priced in a pocket-friendly manner, and is extremely accessible. The aforementioned two points explain the reason behind the popularity of CTC tea.<\/p>\n<h2>CTC Tea and its Popularity in India<\/h2>\n<p>CTC tea is loved amongst Indians because it is strong and very quick to infuse while being loaded with caffeine.
