Tea comes from the Camellia Sinensis bush which is grown in over 30 countries 
around the world. These tea plants grow best in hot and humid conditions, with 
temperatures ranging from 50�� - 85��F, 80-90 inches of rainfall a year and elevations 
from 1,000 ? 7,000 feet above sea level. A combination of altitude and humidity 
promotes the desired slow growth, and the higher the tea is grown, the more flavour 
it has and the finer the quality. Many of the world's most famous teas come from 
bushes cultivated above 4,000 feet. 
<p>From this one species of plant, different types of tea are produced. It is 
  the different processing methods that produce the various types of tea (white, 
  green, oolong, black, scented and compressed) and the different varieties within 
  each of these total more than 3,000 teas from around the world. </p>

<p>1) Green Tea: Green tea is the variety which keeps the original color of the 
  tea leaves without fermentation during processing. This category consists mainly 
  of Longjing tea of Zhejiang Province, Maofeng of Huangshan Mountain in Anhui 
  Province and Biluochun produced in Jiangsu. </p>
<p>2) Black Tea: Black tea, known as &quot;red tea&quot; (hong cha) in China, 
  is the category which is fermented before baking. It is a later variety developed 
  on the basis of the green tea. The best brands of black tea are Qihong of Anhui 
  , Dianhong of Yunnan, Suhong of Jiangsu, Chuanhong of Sichuan and Huhong of 
  Hunan.</p>
<p>3) Wulong Tea: This represents a variety half way between the green and the 
  blackteas, being made after partial fermentation. It is a specialty from the 
  provinces on China's southeast coast: Fujian, Guangdong and Taiwan.</p>
<p>4) Compressed Tea: This is the kind of tea which is compressed and hardened 
  into a certain shape. It is good for transporting and storage and is mainly 
  supplied to ethnic minorities living in the border areas of the country. As 
  compressed tea is black in color in its commercial form, it is also known in 
  China as &quot;black tea&quot;. Most of the compressed tea is in the form of 
  bricks; therefore, generally called &quot;brick tea&quot; though it is sometimes 
  found in the form of cakes and bowls. It is mainly produced in Hubei, Hunan, 
  Sichuan and Yunnan provinces.</p>
<p>5) Scented Tea: This kind of tea is made by mixing fragrant flowers in the 
  tea leaves in the course of processing. Flowers commonly used for this purpose 
  are jasmine and magnolia, among others. Jasmine tea is a well-known favorite 
  with the northerners of China and with a growing number of foreigners.<br>
