Summary

Hong Cha, known in the West as Black Tea, is distinguished from other varieties by its red pigments generated through rolling and oxidation. In contrast to the green hues found in other teas, Black Tea retains these dark red structures. This distinct physical characteristic makes it the least oxidized type among all tea types, serving as a primary marker for this specific cultivar. Its unique reddish colors are formed when tea leaves are rolled, meaning the leaf structure remains intact and stable compared to other processed options.

Regarding the production methods, Green Tea is crafted with heat in a process called Sha Qing or firing, which halts the enzyme causing oxidation and locks in the original green leaf color.
