Green tea supposedly has many positive effects on the body and mind. It definitely soothes both body and mind to put some time aside for an originally serene green tea ceremony. High quality green teas can be steeped up to 5 or 6 times while subtly changing their colour and taste each time. Green tea is made from the same tea leaves as black tea, but it does not undergo the same oxidation procedure in production. Instead, its leaves are dried without fermentation, which results in a very fresh and sometimes grassy flavour.
