| Tea is a beverage
which is composed of steeping processed leaves,
buds, or twigs of the tea bush, (Camellia sinensis)
during boiling. The
processing could include oxidation, heating,
drying, and the addition of other herbs, flowers,
spices.
There are four basic
types of true tea:
• Black tea
• Oolong tea
• Green tea
• White tea
Based on differences
in morphology between Camellia sinensis var.
assamica and Camellia sinensis var. sinensis,
botanists have long affirmed a double botanical
origin for tea. Camellia sinensis var. assamica
has its origin from Yunnan province, China
to the northern region of Myanmar and the
state of Assam in India. Camellia sinensis
var. sinensis on the other hand is native
to eastern and southeastern China.
