Black Tea Varieties and Origins - TSV

Black tea is a type of tea made by fully fermenting tea leaves. Darjeeling and Assam from India, and Ceylon from Sri Lanka are known as the world's three great teas, each with unique flavors and characteristics. Earl Grey is a representative example of flavored tea, scented with bergamot oil. The taste varies greatly depending on the climate and terroir of the production region, and can be enjoyed in various ways such as straight or as milk tea.
