Green tea

From the lush, mist-enshrouded hillsides of East Asia comes green tea: a drink whose distinctive flavour and versatility make it a popular choice around the world.

Immediately after being picked, green tea leaves are treated to stop the natural process of oxidisation. Japanese green tea is steamed, while Chinese green tea is traditionally pan roasted.

In both cases, the result is an unfermented tea that retains many of its naturally-occurring vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. So, as well as being delicious, green tea is also thought to bring a number of health-giving benefits. 

Authentic green tea comes in a variety of different forms. Among the most popular Japanese green teas are matcha, sencha and bancha, and Chinese green tea favourites include Keemun Congo, Gu Zhang Mao Jian, and Snow Pi Lo Chun.
