Chinese Tea Gallery - FAQ

All great tea came from China? What choices do you have?

Tea is often associated with tradition due to China's longstanding history as a major exporter in the industry. 

However, this doesn't mean that other tea-producing countries aren't popular. Japan, for example, is renowned for its expertise in green tea.

🎎 Japanese style of tea-making emphasizes steaming, rolling, and drying, which helps to enhance the tea's aroma while decreasing caffeine and boosting its health benefits.

Shizuoka Hojicha: a great option with its roasted Sencha leaves that turn dark brown and create a round, sweet taste as the water content decreases and the shelf life increases.

Matcha Genmaicha: a rare tea in Hong Kong that has a refreshing Matcha flavour on the first brew and a delicious nutty and toasty aroma on the second.

🐲 China' tea production technique often requires the above several processes: Withering, oxidation, fermentation, rolling, drying, shaping, ageing to extract the taste of tea leaves.

❤️ Taiwan is known for its Oolong tea, and has made a significant investment in "Tea Research and Extension" centre located in Taiwan, where scientist & tea experts are dedicated to agriculture and experiment new types of tea.

As such, Taiwan has at least 13 different types of Oolong tea, such as Number Twelve and Four Seasons. 

🚜 In Kenya, black tea, breakfast tea, and Earl Grey are the primary focuses. Most of the tea in Kenya is hand-harvested due to the area's high rainfall and sufficient sunshine.

The CTC method is often used to crush, tear, destroy, and oxidize tea leaves, which can impact quality and price.
