About black tea
Black tea, like green and white tea, comes from the Camellia sinensis tea plant. This plant is originally from China. For the best tea, a warm and humid climate with fertile soil is very important. Also, the higher a plantation is the better your tea will taste. This is because the Aromas can develop better in a high bush that grows slowly. Black tea leaves are crushed after picking, releasing all kinds of juices and enzymes. These in turn cause tea leaves to change from green to dark brown and finally to black. Then they dry the tea leaves and this is how you finally get black tea with its characteristic color, aroma and taste.
Benefits of Black Tea
Black tea and green tea have much in common when it comes to health benefits. Black tea can lower your blood sugar and reduce the risk of stroke. Black tea can also improve concentration. This is because black tea contains more caffeine than the rest of the teas. Like green tea, black tea can also improve your heart health.
