ABOUT TEA

The most popular drink in the world ...


Different types of tea.

Tea is a common beverage made from steeping processed Camellia sinensis leaves with hot water. There are two main varieties of Camellia sinensis:

The first variety is Camellia sinensis var. sinensis, which produces teas that are bright and fresh to rich and malty in taste. This small-leaved plant is usually grown in mountainous regions with cool and misty climates, such as in China, Taiwan, and Japan.

The second variety is the Camellia sinensis var. assamica, which produces teas that are mellow and grassy to brisk and malty in taste. This plant is large-leaved and usually grown in tropical areas such as India, Sri Lanka, and Kenya.
