Iso, you are INCREDIBLE. Is there ANYTHING you do NOT know about? Now I discover that you are an expert on TEA. First, biology/anatomy and related stuff, then computers, and now tea! LOL! You are awesome! :-)
So, you are saying that Black tea (what's called orange pekoe) starts out as green tea from the same plant, Camellia sinesis (means Chinese camellia) and then it is fermented & dried. I am guessing that this process is what turns it black?
Again, I'm blown away by your knowledge in such a wide variety of subjects ... incredible ...
tee-tea!
