Green tea is processed only a little more than white tea.
It is dried, or fired as soon as it is picked in order to minimize
oxidation (oxidation increases caffeine levels), to retain the freshness
and preserve high levels of
polyphenols
(powerful antioxidents that boost the immune system). As the name implies,
green teas has a grassy quality. Dragon-well is one of the best known
types from Hangzhou, China and has asparagus and artichoke notes.
Japanese green teas have a more brilliant green color and
often exhibit a sea-like aroma.
