What is the difference between oolong, white and green teas?

 Oolong Tea:-

Oolong tea is among the lesser-known types of tea. It is a semi-oxidised tea, tracing its origin to China. Oolong tea derives its name from 'wu long' or black dragon. According to a popular legend, oolong tea was discovered by a tea grower, Wu Long. One fine day, he forgot to process his handpicked leaves, and they began to oxidise naturally. The next day, he processed those tea leaves mildly, which resulted in a brew similar to black tea, but it was sweeter, smoother and more fragrant. This tea was called Black dragon tea since it was dark, long, and curly in appearance. Today, the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian province in China are known for their most assorted range of organic oolong tea. Other countries such as India, Sri Lanka, Japan, Thailand and New Zealand also produce oolong tea. While Taiwan and China produce oolong teas with woody and toasty notes, India is known for floral and fragrant oolongs.

White Tea:-

White tea is among the minimally processed types of tea. It derives its name from the white hair on its young buds, which protect the plant from insects while harvesting. White tea traces its origin to China during the reign of Emperor Huizong’s rule of the Song Dynasty (960 – 1297), who was gifted this kind of tea after grinding young tea buds into a silvery-white powder and whisking it into hot water. It was produced commercially for the first time in the Fujian province of China in the 1700s. The first loose leaf white tea was developed from two plant varieties- Da Bai and Da Hao in China. Today, white teas are considered a delicacy with their delicate, rare and aromatic flavours. Buy White Tea Online

Green Tea:-

Green tea is among one of the least oxidised and the least processed types of tea. Today, it has emerged as the sought-after health beverage across the world because it contains high amounts of antioxidants called polyphenols.

Green tea originated in China, but its consumption was initially restricted to the upper echelons of society as it was an expensive beverage. A text called ‘Cha Jing’, also referred to as ‘The Classic of Tea', written by Cha Jing in 800 A.D., is the first work which documents the green tea culture in the world history. Green tea was introduced to Europe by travellers in the 19th century and soon became popular along with black tea due to its flavour. It became popular in America, too, after being shipped to the country by settlers.
