    M
    OF TEA

    bazaars and the hilltop Kamakhya Temple.
    Umananda Temple sits on Peacock Island in the

    Hajo and Madan Kamdev, the ruins of a temple

    TYPES AND
    CHARACTERI
    STICS OF TEA
    4
    1.GREEN TEA -The ever-popular Green Tea - these are fresh tea
    leaves with very little processing. They do not undergo the oxidation
    process. The leaves, after being plucked, are allowed to wither for a
    few hours. They are then steamed or panned to remove the moisture
    and trap the antioxidants within the leaves. The flavours of the
    Green tea changes from region to region; with more grassy-
    flavoured Green teas coming from Japan, peachy and chocolaty teas
    from China and gunpowder flavours coming from Taiwan.

    2.White Tea-The most exotic teas in the world, White teas are the rarest
    of rare teas. The young fine shoots are hand-picked at the beginning of
    the season with the fine silver doves still attached to it. The complex
    light flavoured tea leaves come from Fujian province in China,
    Darjeeling in India and some parts of Sri Lanka.
    3.Pu erh Tea-This slightly moist tea is piled and aged in underground
    rooms or caves, giving it an exceptional flavour. It is a full-bodied tea
    with a dark rich liquor and distinctively earthy flavour. The best part
    about Pu erh is that, like wine, it only gets better with time.

    6
    4. Black Tea-Black tea is created when tea leaves are exposed to hot
    air for several hours after being plucked. This process helps reduce
    the water content of the tea by 50% to 60%. The leaves are then
    rolled, either by hand or mechanically, to allow essential oils to
    spread and impregnate the buds. The leaves are then passed
    through a screen and the smallest leaves go on to the next stage
    whereas the bigger leaves are rolled again. These are then dried in
    an oven to stop the oxidation process. The end result is a full-bodied
    tea, treasured by tea lovers across the world.

    5.Oolong Tea:A piece of art, tradition and
    craftsmanship is seen in a cup of Oolong
    tea. Oolong tea is oxidized tea and only an
    expert will know how to extract the right
    flavour and how much to oxide it. The tea
    leaves, which may be oxidized from 20% to
    80%, are repeatedly rubbed to generate the
    correct texture and flavour. From soft floral
    flavours to nutty, toasty flavours, Oolong
    tea flavours vary depending upon the level
    of oxidation.
    6.Rooibos Tea - This is a tisane that is grown exclusively in
    South Africa. It was discovered over a 100 years ago when the
    residents of Cederberg area (near Cape Town) realized that the
    fine needle-like leaves of a mountain bush could be used to
    make a refreshing hot drink. The fresh tea leaves are bruised,
    fermented in heaps, sun-dried and sifted to give you a unique
    naturally caffeine-free brew.
