Tea is the
second most consumed beverage behind water. There must
be something special about this brewed beverage.Tea is basically
the dried and processed leaves of only one species of plant
called camellia sinensis.Some teas are flavored with oils
or scented with flower petals during the processing stage.
Some teas are blends
of the various types of tea.
The three main categories
of tea are black, green, and oolong. Green teas, Black
teas
and Oolong teas come from the same tea plant species,the
difference being the processing of Black tea undergo several
hours of oxidation during preparation (accelerated
by heat and humidity) Oolong tea is partially fermented
and green tea is steamed to stop oxidation.

Black Orthodox Tea
Black tea is allowed to oxidise during manufacture but there
are considerable variations in method. This gives them immense
variety of character. We specialise in tea made by the orthodox
method and all are the best quality large leaf grades.Black
teas are the most consumed of the four types of teas. They
are the highest in caffeine, but still have antioxidant properties,
just not quite as much as others.

Green Tea
Green Tea has very low
levels of caffeine (8.4 mg per cup compared with 25-110
mg per cup for black teas and 60-120
mg for coffee). Green teas are fresher in taste and should
be drunk not too strong and without milk.Green teas,
like white teas, are closer to tasting like fresh leaves,grass
than the black or oolong.They have higher antioxidant
properties.
Oolong Tea
Oolong Tea meaning black dragon, are semi-fermented.They
are very light and delicate. Oolongs are picked when the
leaves are not too young and are processed immediately after
plucking. They are always whole leaf teas, never broken by
rolling. Oolong teas are the most difficult of the four types
of teas to process. The best way to describe oolong tea is
that they are somewhere in between green and black tea. This
is because they are only partially oxidized during the processing. |
