Tea production is made through hand picking and sun drying which is believed to have great medicinal value. The uniqueness of Talui tea is that the real flavor comes when the leaf is boiled for the second time. Talui is the first place in Manipur to experiment with tea planting. Talui has the distinction of producing outstanding people in different walks of life, ranging from renowned public leaders to high-ranking government officers. Interestingly, Lt.
