every cup of tea is learning something new with every pot. Its
enormous complexities seem to get unfold with every
consumption. Now, there are some rules which you can all ‘myths’
about this beverage that leads to misconceptions only.
Time has come that we all get out of these myths and bust them.
Have a look…
Myth 1: Caffeine Content in Black Tea is Greater than Green
Blends
All kinds of teas contain caffeine. Though some people claim that
caffeine content of black blends is more than any other variant,
they cannot state the exact amount. Caffeine concentration of
brewed tea depends on size of the leaves, its processing style
and mode of cultivation. Green tea might contain the same
amount of caffeine as black blends. Again, two black brews of a
single region might have different levels of caffeine.
For less caffeine in brewed tea, steep it for short time and for
more caffeinated tea, brew it for longer time.
Myth 2: Organic Blends are of High Quality
Demand for organic tea has substantially increased over the past
years and chief tea producing regions like Darjeeling is engaging
more and more into organic cultivation to meet market demands.
Even if a tea estate is completely organic but its neighbors are
not, then there are chances that it will be affected by pesticides
from surrounding neighbor.
Moreover, organic brews do not taste better than conventional
teas. At times, they taste worse. Many companies use organic
certification only as a label.
Myth 3: Green Tea is Healthier
