Chinese Green Tea
Chinese Green Tea is a popular beverage made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Unlike black tea, the leaves are quickly steamed or pan-fired to prevent oxidation, preserving their green color and fresh flavor. This process also helps retain beneficial compounds, making it a favorite for health-conscious individuals.
There are several varieties of Chinese Green Tea, including Longjing (Dragon Well) and Biluochun. Each type has its unique taste and aroma, influenced by factors such as the region where it is grown and the specific harvesting methods used. Enjoyed both hot and cold, it is often praised for its refreshing qualities.
