To produce black tea, the tea leaves are plucked by hand and left in the sun until they are pliable enough to be rolled without splitting. The leaves are then put into a mechanical tumbler and rolled. This process causes the leaves' juices to react with the air and oxidize. When the green leaves turn black, they are fired in huge drying ovens to produce the final product

To produce green tea, the fresh tea leaves are carefully placed on large bamboo trays and allowed to dry in the sunlight. They are then placed into small hot roasting pans and are continuously rolled into balls and then re-roasted for several hours at a time. This process stops the chemical changes from occurring in the leaf by never allowing it to wither and ferment. By eliminating the fermentation process, the dry leaf retains its green color and natural composition

This is the rarest and most delicate type of tea. It is plucked by hand within two days between the time the first buds become fully mature and the time in which the leaf unfurls. The leaves are then allowed to wither, allowing the natural moisture to evaporate before being dried

Oolong tea is referred to as a "semi-fermented" tea and is principally manufactured in China and Taiwan (Formosa). After plucking, it is allowed to wilt in direct sunlight, then shaken in bamboo baskets to lightly bruise the leaf. The chemicals in the leaf react with the air, producing a reddish color. After some time, the leaf is fired and the fermentation process is halted. These steps create the unique appearance and flavor of the two different types of oolong

Pu-erh teas are created by hand piling Yunnan black tea for lengthy periods, allowing a true internal fermentation of the leaf to occur. This process gives Pu-erh its unique earthy overtones. Pu-erh has long been valued for medicinal benefits, believed to aid in digestion and the reduction of cholesterol
