Tea Types
Tea is categorised by the way it's produced and processed.
- White Tea (Younger leaves and delicate buds) : Wilted and unoxidised.
- Yellow Tea (Made like Green tea but longer drying processing) : Unwilted and unoxidised, but allowed to yellow.
- Green Tea: Unwilted and unoxidised (or very little oxidisation).
- Oolong: Wilted, bruised, and partly oxidised.
- Black Tea: Wilted, (crushed sometimes) and fully oxidised
- Post-fermented Tea: Green tea that has been allowed to ferment/compose more than Green Tea.
