Fermented Tea
Fermented tea (also known as post-fermented tea or dark tea) is a class of tea that has undergone microbial fermentation (biochemistry), fermentation, from several months to many years. The exposure of the tea leaves to humidity and oxygen during the process also causes endo-oxidation (derived from the tea-leaf enzymes themselves) and exo-oxidation (which is microbe, microbially catalysed). The tea leaves and the liquor made from them become darker with oxidation. Thus, the various kinds of fermented teas produced across China are also referred to as dark tea, not be confused with black tea, which is actually referred to as "red tea" (''hong cha'', wikt:红茶, 红茶) in Chinese. The most famous fermented tea is produced in Yunnan, Yunnan province. The fermentation of tea leaves alters their chemistry, affecting the organoleptic qualities of the tea made from them. Fermentation affects the odor, smell of the tea and typically mellows its taste, reducing astringency and bitter ...
