About Camellia Sinensis
Tea is the most widely-consumed beverage after water. It has a cooling, slightly bitter, astringent flavor.
The four types of tea most commonly found on the market are black tea, oolong tea, green tea and white tea, all of which can be made from the same bushes, processed differently, and in the case of fine white tea, grown differently. Pu-erh tea, a double-fermented black tea, is also often classified as among the most popular types of tea.
