Black tea is what most people imagine when thinking of a cup of tea. The majority (80%) of consumers worldwide prefer black tea. It is fully fermented and contains the highest amount of caffeine of all teas. The production of black tea involves four main phases: Withering – the fresh tea leaves are withered to prevent the cracking of their surface during rolling. Rolling or twisting – during this process, the leaves release a fruity aroma reminiscent of apples. Chemicals are released in the rolled leaves, determining the final color and aroma of the tea. Fermentation – the rolled leaves are left for several hours to absorb oxygen, causing chemical changes that turn the leaves from green to reddish brown. Drying – the oxidized leaves are exposed to high temperatures to stop further natural decomposition, resulting in the final black color and characteristic aroma of the tea.
