Type of Tea
Flavoured Tea
Flavoured tea is tea blended with at least one flavour. The flavour could be any combination of fruits, flowers, vegetables, essential oils, etc.
White Tea
White tea, just like every other tea, comes from the Camellia sinensis plant, however is minimally processed. It is harvested before the leaves open fully, when the buds are still covered by fine white hairs, hence the name.
Oolong Tea
Oolong teas can be thought of as a cross between green teas and black teas. They are oxidised more than green teas but not as much as black teas.
Masala Tea
Chai is steeped in a rich history. The name "chai" is actually the Hindi word for "tea", which was derived from "cha", the Chinese word for "tea".
Black Tea
Black tea is fully oxidised tea. Black tea undergoes withering, rolling, oxidation and finally drying after it is picked.
Green Tea
Green tea is lightly oxidised tea. Green tea undergoes withering, rolling, oxidation and finally drying after it is picked. In some cases, it may be steamed and/or roasted.
