Description: Tulsi Leaves C/S is prepared from the fresh leaves and tender stems of Ocimum tenuiflorum, a small perennial shrub native to the Indian subcontinent. The plant typically grows between 30 and 60 centimetres tall, with aromatic green to purplish leaves and delicate small flowers that bloom in spikes during the warmer months. Harvesting is carried out when the leaves are fully mature, aromatic, and vibrant in colour, ensuring consistent quality and visual appeal.

After harvesting, the leaves and stems are carefully cleaned to remove dust, soil, and other debris. Drying is done using controlled air or low-temperature methods to maintain the natural green colour and preserve the delicate leaf structure. Once dried, the plant material is cut and sifted into uniform fragments, producing lightweight, free-flowing pieces with visible leaf sections and tender stems. This process maintains the botanical integrity of Ocimum tenuiflorum while producing a consistent cut suitable for blending, infusion, and decorative uses.

The finished Tulsi Leaves C/S displays a natural green colour with slightly fibrous stems and aromatic leaf fragments. The texture is crisp and stable during storage, retaining both appearance and characteristic aroma over time. The cut and sifted format allows for easy handling, accurate measuring, and uniform blending for various applications.
