| FINE TEAS |
The most commonly consumed tea in the U.S.A. Black tea is more
oxidized than oolong, green or white teas, all of which come from the
Camellia sinensis plant. It is generally stronger in flavor, and although it
is higher in caffeine than other teas, it still contains less than 1/2 as much
as the same size cup of coffee. Great on ice or hot with milk, sugar, honey
or plain. Research indicates that drinking black tea can aid in the
prevention of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

An old world tea dating back to the Eastern Han Dynasty in China.
Known as the "broad leaf tea", its leaves come from the Camellia sinensis
var. assamica plant. The chemical composition of these leaves are
different from the regular variety, altering the taste and aroma of the
brewed tea. Pu'erh is usually found in a compressed form, such as a tea
cake or brick, and is known for its ability to age well, giving it a darker
color and more mellow flavor. Research shows that pu'erh reduces blood
cholesterol levels and helps with the unpleasant effects of heavy alcohol
consumption.

leaves and buds and offer a low caffeine content. Early research indicates
numerous health benefits, including a high EGCG content and immune
system building properties.
