Green Tea: Green tea is a "true" tea that has undergone minimal oxidation during processing. Green tea is popular in China, Japan and Taiwan and has recently become more popular in the West, which traditionally drinks black tea (a "true" tea made from leaves more heavily oxidized than the white, green, and oolong varieties). |
In Japan, Green tea (ryokucha) is so ubiquitous that it is more commonly known as "tea" (ocha) and even "Japanese tea" (nihoncha). Types of tea are commonly graded depending on the quality and the parts of the plant used. There are large variations in both price and quality within these broad categories, and there are many specialty green teas that fall outside this spectrum. The very best Japanese green tea is said to be that from the Uji region of Kyoto. |
Green tea is known for its high contents of minerals and vitamins. Many studies about green tea have concluded that it may reduce the risk of many chronic health problems. |
Because of the recent discoveries about the health benefits in green tea, it is now becoming widely used on items such as hair care products, body wash and lotions, sunscreens and even candy bars!
