Black tea is the most popular type of tea in the world. Approximately 90% of the tea consumed worldwide is black. Like most teas, black tea is derived from the leaves and buds of the Camellia Sinensis plant. The leaves undergo full oxidization giving them the black colour. It therefore is the most processed tea.
Purple tea is a type of tea derived from the leaves, buds and shoots of a crossbreed variety of the Camellia Sinensis plant, the plant from which black tea, green tea, yellow tea, white tea and oolong tea are derived. Unlike the rest, the purple tea plant is purple-red in colour and so are its anthocyanins (antioxidants which give rise to the purple colour). Anthocyanins are the same compounds found in other purple foods such as raspberries and purple grapes. Purple tea has many health benefits and some people prefer it to green tea due to its appealing taste.
White Tea is derived from the leaves and buds of the Camellia Sinensis plant. It is mainly harvested once a year, before the tea leaves are fully opened. At this stage, the buds are wrapped in white hairs. The most expensive and pure of all teas, white tea is also the least processes type of tea, only undergoing withering and drying after plucking. As a result, it contains a large amount of antioxidants. White tea has a floral and delicate taste.
Green tea is a type of tea derived from the leaves, buds and shoots of the Camellia Sinensis plant. Unlike black tea, it is not fermented. It has gained popularity around the world due to its many health benefits.
Oolong tea is a type of tea derived from the leaves, shoots and buds of the Camellia Sinensis plant. It is partially oxidized. It contains a significant amount of caffeine and has a sweet flavor.
Yellow tea is a type of tea derived from the leaves, buds and shoots of the camellia sinensis plant species. Yellow tea is sweet and pleasant.
