Know Your Tea Type

Black teas are completely fermented teas. The tea leaves are allowed to fully oxidize during the production process followed by heat processing and sun drying. Oxidation causes the leaves to turn into their characteristic rich dark brown to black color. It also alters the flavors of the tea giving it malty, fruity, and even smoky notes depending on the type of tea being produced.

This process allows the tea leaves to remain whole or only partially broken during processing. The tea leaves are plucked from the garden after which they go through a withering process to reduce moisture. This is followed by rolling where the tea leaves are rolled in a variety of ways to bruise the leaves and start oxidation. Oxidation gives the tea its color and flavors after which the tea leaves are fired to apply heat in order to stop oxidation.
