Black Tea

Black Tea is one of the most popular types of tea and is wholly oxidised. The enzymes in the tea leaves are activated when the cell structure is broken by the rolling process. A reaction occurs with the oxygen in the air, turning the leaf from green to brown. This process is stopped by applying heat to the leaves. The main Black Tea producing countries are Kenya, India and Sri Lanka.
