Cameron Highlands Highlight 1-Boh Tea Centre

What else reminded you of Cameron Highland except strawberry and rose?

Boh Tea of course!!

Think you will never forgot the advertisement of 'Minum Boh, baru ada ummph' ..............

The Boh Tea Centre is situated at cameron Highlands, Sg Palas.



This is the tea plantation farm. You can see it along your way up the hill to the tea centre.




The pic below is the Boh Tea cafe. The cafe has indoor and outdoor area. There are glass walls around the inside of the cafe, so that if you cant get the balcony seat, you can still able to enjoy the magificient view sitting inside.



This is a cup of Boh Tea. The price for a cup of tea range from RM 2.50. Or else you can get a pot of tea to share with your friends or family. However, they will charge for every empty cup that you requested (RM 2.50 per empty cup if not mistaken). So not a very good bargain also.




This is how the cafe look like. Besides tea, cakes and pastries are served too to give you a quality afternoon tea. You can spent your lazy afternoon here enjoying the BOH tea while enjoying the scenic view.



Interested to know how the cup of tea is being made?


No worry, the tea factory is open for visit for FREE!!
However, no explanation were given on the tea making process. http://www.malaysiahotelreview.com/pahang/destination/boh-tea-centre.shtml
I have found a good explanation of tea making process from this website .

First , the tea leaves have to be dried to remove the moisture content.
Later they have to sent to this rolloing machine to expose the leave juices to oxygen. All things are replaced by machines nowadays.

The leaves then going through fermentation. This step will determine the taste of the end products.


The products then going through drying which at this stage, the tea will appear black.
The tea then going through sorting before being packed into individual packing.
If you want to buy some Boh tea to bring back home, there is one merchandise shop nearby the Boh tea cafe. You can get all range of Boh Tea there, including some that could not be found in major supermakets.
