Know your Tea
Whether a tea leaf winds up in a cup of green, black, or other form of tea depends entirely on what happens after it is plucked.Black Tea
Black Tea is a fully oxidized tea. The plucked tea leaves are put through a process called oxidation during which the leaves are exposed to moist, oxygen-rich air. This changes the colour of the leaves from their original green to a dark brownish-black.
Green Tea
Known as an elixir among teas, Green Tea is made by exposure to quick heating by either pan firing or steaming the harvested leaves and drying them soon after. This process prevents excessive oxidation and locks in the natural goodness of the tea leaves.
Flavoured Tea
Flavoured tea is made by blending processed tea leaves with fruits, herbs and/or flowers. These teas can be enjoyed either as hot or cold beverages and are sometimes considered as dessert teas. The flavours complement the tea rather than diminish the natural aroma of the tea leaves.

Tea is Good for You
There are several health benefits to drinking tea. Here are a few reasons why it’s a good idea to have a cuppa or two a day.
- Anti-oxidants present in tea help to neutralise free radicals which have the ability to alter DNA and are therefore linked to aging, cancer, cardiac disease and neurological degeneration.
- Catechins found in tea improve the utilisation of body fat as fuel for metabolism, thereby reducing the risk of metabolic syndrome which is a precursor for diabetes, arterial disease and stroke.
- Improved metabolism means more efficient muscle activity, which in turn enhances exercise endurance and fitness.
- Polyphenols, also found in tea, are believed to help maintain the learning and memory centres of the brain, which are essential to keep degenerative neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s at bay.
