Green Tea VS Black Tea
Both Black and Green Tea are derived from the same plant:
CAMELLIA SINENSIS
GREEN TEA

BLACK TEA
The leaves are harvested and withered and then crushed, torn, curled, or rolled and allowed to oxidize before being dried. As a result the leaves DARKEN and develop a STRONGER flavor and aroma.
