Indian Green Tea Bulk Export | Loose-Leaf & Broken Grades
Indian green tea has developed into an established commercial export category, drawing from harvest valleys across North Bengal and the Terai foothills. Byahut Tea Company procures and exports conventional bulk green tea grades selected for clear liquor extraction, pleasant vegetative notes, and consistent physical leaf grades. Working from our Siliguri procurement base, we supply international blenders, loose-leaf packers, and beverage manufacturers with reliable commercial lots tailored to import specifications.

Commercial Quality Evaluation & Export Packaging
Unoxidized tea requires disciplined storage and reliable packaging to maintain sensory freshness across maritime transit.
Moisture Barrier Packaging
Multiwall paper sacks fitted with food-grade moisture barrier liners protect delicate leaf aromas and prevent humidity absorption during ocean freight from Kolkata or Haldia ports.
Packaging Standards →Independent Laboratory Assays
Where required by destination regulatory mandates (such as EU MRL or US FDA regulations), multi-residue pesticide testing and microbiological screens are coordinated through independent NABL-accredited laboratories.
Quality Verification →Statutory Trade Documentation

Trade Documents →Frequently Asked Questions: Bulk Indian Green Tea Export
How is conventional Indian green tea processed differently from black tea?
Unlike black tea which undergoes controlled enzymatic oxidation, green tea leaves undergo prompt enzyme deactivation through controlled pan-firing or steaming within hours of plucking. This thermal de-enzyming preserves the leaf's natural green coloration, vegetative aromatics, and clean liquor clarity.
What commercial applications use bulk Indian green tea?
Bulk conventional green tea is utilized by international buyers for loose-leaf canister packing, botanical flavored blending (with peppermint, jasmine, ginger, or citrus peel), commercial iced tea brewing, and foodservice beverage dispensers.
How is bulk green tea packaged to safeguard freshness during transit?
Unoxidized green tea is packed in multiwall kraft paper sacks with food-grade moisture barrier liners, configured to buyer specification. Packaging preserves aroma and protects leaf moisture integrity during transit.
What particle grades of Indian green tea are available?
We coordinate bulk supplies of whole leaf green tea (curled pan-fired leaf), broken green tea (uniform particle cuts suited to botanical dry blending), and fine green fannings (suited for fast infusion and liquid beverage extraction).
