Information On Tea, Tea Leaves
Green teas are the least processed teas. After picking, the teas are
quickly steamed, stopping the natural fermentation or oxidation
which takes place once the leaves are removed from the plant. The
leaves are then rolled and either sun-dried or pan fired in large woks.
This minimal processing causes these teas to have their signature
fresh or "grassy" flavors.
Black teas, on the other hand, are fully processed. Once plucked,
the teas are allowed to wither and the leaves become limp. The
leaves are then rolled and allowed to ferment before they are dried
to stop the process. The fermentation of black teas accounts for
stronger, more developed flavors and the reddish color of their liquors.
These teas are called black due to the dark hue of the processed leaves,
but in China these teas are known as red teas because of the color of
the cup.
Oolong teas are partially fermented teas, and have taste and appearance
characteristics of both green and black teas. These teas are allowed
to begin oxidizing but the process is stopped before full fermentation
is achieved. Generally speaking, Formosa Oolongs from Taiwan are
allowed to ferment more than their cousins in mainland China.

A word from the Lizard King:
Have you ever noticed how slowly Iguanas move? They seem to sit in one spot for hours and then suddenly they will appear somewhere else altogether. Motion is the only evidence we have of existence. If all the atoms in the universe were absolutely still they would be imperceivable and yet here we are spinning through space and time - like so many Iguanas basking in the sun on the rocks at the beach in Costa Rica.
Taste The Sun.
Christian Martin.
If you haven't seen the Iguana recently, you don't have long before it appears, almost as if by magic, somewhere else and looking quite different.
In the next 24 hours we will know the new location for sure, but a crack team of scientists have tracked the next appearance to these coordinates:
