BLACK TEA
The most widely known variety in the West, Black Tea comes from leaves that are oxidized, or fermented. Freshly-picked leaves are withered until they are pliable enough to be rolled, releasing juices and enzymes that react with oxygen. Oxidation changes the leaf's properties and accounts for the dark, rich colors and strong, brisk flavors characteristic of Black Tea. Essentially, it is this oxidation, process that makes Black Tea different from Green Tea. Classic teas like English Breakfast and Earl Grey fall within this category.
Because both Black and Green Tea comes from the same plant, health benefits are similar. Black Teas are especially rich in theaflavins and thearubigens (potent antioxidants) which have shown impressive cholesterol-lowering abilities and cardiovascular benefits.
We offer a selection of both traditional and whimsical Black Teas to fit your own unique taste and mood!
