Tea
Tea is an infusion made by steeping processed leaves, buds, or twigs of the tea bush, Camellia Sinensis, in hot water for several minutes, after which it is drunk. The four basic types of true tea are black tea, oolong tea, green tea, and white tea. The tea plant (camellia sinensis) grows best in a humid tropical or subtropical climate with plenty of rain. There are two important subspecies of the tea plant, the China type and the Assam type. But, for good quality teas, only the newest growth (two leaves and a bud) is plucked by hand. This process is called fine plucking
