FULLY OXIDIZED TEA: BLACK TEA
Black Tea Overview:
Black tea is the most consumed tea in the world, defined by its full oxidation process that transforms fresh leaves into a rich, copper-colored drink with deep flavor. Its production involves withering, rolling, fermenting, and drying, with some teas undergoing light roasting to refine aroma and add subtle notes. Learn more about black tea in our article here.
