How to make and brew tea

Tea is made in two different ways. However, the production is not a simple process, it requires expertise at every stage and can vary from culture to culture. The actual production process, where leaves and buds from the tea bush are turned into tea, is generally divided into two methods

  • The orthodox method
  • The CTC method (Crush, Tear and Curl, or Cut, Tear and Curl).

Regardless of the method used, all teas are first picked directly from the tea bush Camellia Sinensis. TThe pickers always choose the freshest shoots, which are usually the top leaves and buds.

Where is tea grown?

Tea is grown all over the world, but the tea we (you and I) drink typically comes from countries located in subtropical and tropical climate zones. This is where the Camellia Sinensis tea bush has the best living conditions.

The quality, flavor and character of the tea is completely dependent on the altitude and climate in which it is grown. Like altitude and climate, weather also plays an important role in whether the harvest in each season is good or bad.

The countries that grow and produce the most tea are China, India, Sri Lanka, Kenya, Turkey, Indonesia, Vietnam and Japan. These are the countries that teas typically come from, but the list of countries that grow this beverage includes over 34 different ones.

Where does tea come from?

Tea comes from all over the world, but the one (you and I) drink comes from the plant Camellia Sinensis (also called tea bush). This is either;

  • A large shrub that is trimmed to hip height. This makes it easier to pick the leaves and buds used to make tea.
  • A small tree with a slender, domed growth form. The plant will grow into a tree if growth is not controlled as in cultivation.

There is some uncertainty about the origin of the plant species itself, but according to the latest theories, the upper Irrawaddy River Valley in Myanmar and neighboring parts of India and China is where the tea bush originated.

There are two main varieties, var. sinensis, called China tea, and var. assamica, called Assam tea, which reproduce and spread freely.

Is there caffeine in tea?

There is caffeine in tea. One cup typically contains an average of 27 mg. of caffeine, but there can be a big difference from cup to cup.

Studies indicate that variations can occur from 8 mg. per cup to 91 mg. per cup. Whereas the caffeine content of coffee is typically between 29 mg. to 176 mg. per cup. Therefore, the content can be more than double when comparing the two drinks.

The caffeine content of tea can therefore vary depending on quality, type (e.g. green vs. black) and brewing time. However, the caffeine content is still enough for you to experience an invigorating effect on the brain when you drink tea.

Because the caffeine content is so low, it also means it’s harder to get too much. Therefore, only with very large amounts of tea will you experience side effects such as inner turmoil and other side effects.
