All true tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant. Differences between tea types come from how the leaves are processed.

Minimal processing with leaves simply withered and dried. Light, delicate, and naturally sweet.

Unoxidized tea heated shortly after harvest to preserve freshness. Light, vegetal, and slightly grassy.

Finely ground green tea whisked with water and consumed whole. Smooth, rich, and concentrated.

Partially oxidized tea with a wide range of styles, from light and floral to rich and roasted.

Fully oxidized tea with bold, strong flavor, ranging from malty to brisk.

Aged or fermented tea, often compressed. Deep, earthy flavors that develop over time.

Not made from the tea plant. Includes herbs, flowers, and fruits. Naturally caffeine-free.
