  @1bc70a0148b3f316da33fe3c89f23e3e71ac4ff998027ec712b905cd24f6a411 I'm sure people threw flowers and other stuff into hot water around the world. But OG tea is a delicacy we take for granted. Black tea, white tea, green tea, oolong tea... all the same strain of the same plant, only found at the border of India and China.

  @1bc70a0148b3f316da33fe3c89f23e3e71ac4ff998027ec712b905cd24f6a411 I just learned about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camellia_sinensis
  
  I figured black tea must be several varieties, but no, it's just green tea cooked a bit longer.

Common names include tea plant, tea shrub, and tea tree (unrelated to Melaleuca alternifolia, the source of tea tree oil, or the genus Leptospermum commonly called tea tree). White tea, yellow tea, green tea, oolong, dark tea (which includes pu-erh tea) and black tea are all harvested from one of two major varieties grown today, C. sinensis var. sinensis and C. s. var. assamica, but are processed differently to attain varying levels of oxidation with black tea being the most oxidized and green being the least. Kukicha (twig tea) is also harvested from C. sinensis, but uses twigs and stems rather than leaves. Description Camellia sinensis is native to East Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, and Southeast Asia, but it is today cultivated all around the world in tropical and subtropical regions. It is an evergreen shrub or small tree that is usually...
