- Did you know that many different types of tea come from the same plant? It’s pretty amazing, considering the various flavors and colors, but what really sets each tea apart are the chemical changes that happen in the leaves during production. This week on Reactions, we’re going to debunk a couple of myths behind the healthful and flavorful compounds found in each type of tea.

Its 90% vodka 10% whiskey
Give me the lighter
L-Theanine is a compound found in green tea and has some it has mild pharmacological benefits such as mood improvement and anti anxiety effects which might explain the calming effect some people experience with tea despite the caffeine.
Definitely! I've been drinking tea for a 6 months, I always feel sleepy right after 5 to 10 mins drank green tea
What about oolong tea?
It bugs me when people choose green tea as a "caffeine free" alternative to black tea late in the evening, thinking it's like herbal teas in that respect 🤦♀️
Same.
So true!! I usually make myself fennel or chamomile in the evening!
It has that L theanine (spelling?) component that has a calming effect. I always drink green tea in the evening and sleep just fine.
@@Al-ok1lj Same
I already watched the today I found out video on this subject, so I knew the difference between those teas. But your infographic brought clarity to the next level. And the added chemical info is a nice bonus. Good job!
Hunan Anhua Fizhuang (Brick Tea) is very interesting. Deliberately molded, with its signature spore creating bright yellow spots
I really would love to know the difference in health benefits with everyday drinking various types of tea. Also I wonder why you have so low views cause the video is really informative. You deserve more attention. Keep up good content!
Me too.
How about matcha processing?
I was gonna say that too 😉
Matcha is made from the leaves of tencha, a type of Japanese green tea grown in the shade. After harvesting, the leaves are lightly steamed and dried. But instead of going through the rolling process, they are ground with stone mills into powder. There may be forms of "matcha" produced outside Japan, but if they are not from tencha leaves, they should technically not be called as matcha but just regular green tea powder.
I absolutely love Oolong tea❤️
I've tasted couple of oolong brands in the market, not sure how they do it but the general flavor profile I got conditioned by drinking them non stop is: light, fresh and fragrant, the general flavor is mild, refreshing and has a hint of sweetness to it even if I steep it for 5 to 7 minutes, the color is mild yellow. Or maybe the oolongs in the groceries generally are the "green" oolongs, the lightly roasted ones, hence the absence of the standard tea bitterness I am expecting.
I was doing some research on tea leaves and found that online say oolong and black tea has a higher concentration of caffeine but this video states otherwise, can someone please explain to me?
Is white tea a healthy choice that won’t stain your teeth?
Great video.
Thank you for sharing.
We are also interested in puer and aged White tea ;)
Saludos desde Tea Institute Latinoamérica!!🍵😊🍵
Eastern Beauty and Darjeeling both are uniquely flavored due to chemicals the plants produce in response to intentional infestation with tea leaf hoppers. Also ancient tea trees for use in puerh result in the cooked vs aged vs fresh flavor profiles, all uniquely different than tea bush plantation teas.
great video, went thru a few videos but most of them didn't got the point
What do you think about kombucha? The fermented tea life?!
In the states most ppl drink artificially flavored sugar water, and call it tea. May as well be soda, tbh.
Tea is actually incredibly cheap. It would be more expensive to add tea flavouring than just get some tea and steep it. You may start to notice tho, the colour of those drinks is like a very light black tea, so they don't use that much.
Would it be possible to explain how the antioxidants are... Well antioxidants and how they are used in the body?
I think they have other videos about th hose
Great suggestion.
What white tea has more caffeine than black?
What about Valerian root tea!
Shaneequa Naynay
Herbal tea I guess
😳 As an Englishman, I ‘worship’ the Chinese Emperor who discovered how to brew tea! (But I have never forgiven the colonists who threw crates of tea into Boston harbour!). PS. My choice of tea is from northeastern india - Darjeeling. Cucumber sandwiches, anyone?

The tea was bad tea though.
Pi 🙀 But at the time tea was more valuable than gold, due to it being extremely difficult to obtain from China. Tea plants had to be smuggled out from China into India and Ceylon, now Sri Lanka, and later to East Africa. PS. Tea in cup first, then milk to taste. Mine is for tough chaps - black without milk!
Sir Meow The Library Cat
What no milk first
You probably pour the milk, then the cereal, then add the bowl.

I was told green tea is not good for people with " hypertension " high blood pressure os that true ?
Rooibos (I know I spelt that wrong) tea as well as fancy herbal teas that David’s Tea makes. That would be interesting!
Interesting. I like a good strong black tea.
Why no mention Yellow or Pu’er? Those are tea, too! A missed opportunity. ;)
TWG tea forever❤❤❤
Yellow tea? Orange tea?
Blue tea? Magenta tea?
Red fish? Blue fish?
@@ACSReactions Yellow tea is a thing (lightly fermented green tea) and orange may refer to orange pekoe quality black tea.
Pu'erh tea would have been nice to hear about in this video. I understand it's fermentation is more microbial and less to do with oxidation.
Dilmah is actually my favourite tea brand. The premium is really flavourful. I don't buy anything else.
Why doesn't the roasting destroy the property but boiling water do?
Wowwww
hmmm i think the oolong tea is wrong, thought it was just whiskey and vodka
I prefer Arizona Tea lol
Now I wonder how people in history stumbled upon tea considering how many steps needed to produce one.
😊😊❤❤Hindi translation tell
Lol never heard of white tea
ever heard of colorful tea
Vastly different?! And then goes on to discribe them as a gradient... You clearly don't understand what 'vastly different' means.
i thought white tea wasn’t steamed. i’m confused now
You are right, it is not ;)
FTR, what we call "black tea" is actually called red tea, and what we call "pu-erh" is actual black tea.
I hope you'll do videos going more into depth about each type.
Britishness intensifies watching this video.
Thats not true oolong tea! It can’t be set on fire!
What about twig tea?
As a producer of white tea, the explanation of the production process of white tea in the video is not accurate.
Many people still don't know that tea comes from a plant (and not manufactured in a factory).
I'm a fan of "pu-erh" tea.
Hahahhahahah funny
first one!!
That's so creative! Makes me all giggly and world loving when I see amazing people like you!
All tea taste like muddy water
except for ice tea
I add half a lemon and little stevia to oolong tea, it tastes good
