Dehydrated Roses: How to Manufacture It?

The production of our dehydrated roses involves several meticulous steps to ensure that the final product retains the maximum amount of color, fragrance, and nutritional value.
1) Harvesting: The process starts with harvesting the roses at their peak bloom. Timing is critical here; roses are picked early in the morning when their essential oil content is at its highest. This ensures that the petals are as fragrant and flavorful as possible.
2) Cleaning: After harvesting, the rose petals are gently cleaned to remove any dirt or insects. This step is essential to maintain the purity and quality of the final product. The cleaning process is done using cool, clean water to avoid any damage to the delicate petals.
3) Dehydration: Our product are then dried using two methods: Low temperature freeze-drying & Microwave drying.
—— Low temperature freeze-drying is a process of dehydration in which the water in fresh flowers is directly sublimated into water vapor in the form of ice under a vacuum at a low temperature (such as minus 41 ° C). This technology can maximize the preservation of the color, shape, and thermosensitive nutrients of flowers.
—— Microwave drying is the process of using the energy of microwaves to penetrate the internal tissues of fresh flowers, rapidly evaporating water and achieving the goal of drying. This method can complete drying in a short time to avoid oxidation of the flowers.
4) Packaging: Once fully dried, the petals are immediately packaged in airtight containers. This step is crucial to protect the petals from moisture and light, which can degrade their quality. Our packaging process ensures that the dehydrated roses remain fresh and aromatic until they reach the consumer.

How to Make Rose Tea Properly？

1) Firstly, place an appropriate amount of the rose (usually one at a time) into a tea set, and gently rinse the flower with hot water at 60-70 ℃. This process is called “awakening tea” and takes about 10 seconds. This step helps to remove dust from the surface of the rose while allowing them to preheat.
2) After waking up the tea, continue to inject hot water of 60-70 ℃ into the tea set, with a suitable amount of water to cover the flower. Be careful not to directly inject water into the rose to prevent the petals from being blanched by hot water. Let the flowers naturally stretch in water, soak for about 2-3 minutes before drinking.
3) Rosa Crimson Glory is very durable and can be brewed multiple times. During the brewing process, one can appreciate the slow blooming of Rosa Crimson Glory in water, observe their color gradually changing from deep purple to pink, and at the same time, savor their unique aroma and taste.
