Hello, the main product which is fermented tea leaves is 100% organic.

How have the tea leaves been fermented and what ingredients have been used?

Hello, The freshly harvested young tea leaves are steamed and then packed into bamboo vats then set in pits, pressed by heavy weights to encourage fermentation, buried in the ground, and left to ferment for up to a year, the longer the better. Dug up after the fermentation process the leaves are a moist, dark brown sludge. The fermented tea leaves are covered with water, massaged gently, and drained well. these tea leaves are used to make laphet. The fermented tea leaf is then thoroughly mixed with minced garlic and ground chili(optional), salt, fresh lemon juice, and peanut oil. A tasty laphet is the final result.
