Black Tea: Exploring the Rich Tradition of "Hong Cha Black tea, or "hong cha", is one of China's most beloved teas, celebrated for its bold flavors and smooth character. Join us as we explore its origins, differences, and unique qualities.
Understanding Black Tea and Pu-erh Tea While often compared, black tea ("hong cha") and ripe Pu-erh ("hei cha") differ in classification. The key distinction is not just in name but in their fermentation processes, which shape their taste and character.
The Naming Tradition: Why "Red Tea"? In China, black tea is called “hong cha” (red tea) due to the reddish color of its brewed liquor. This cultural naming tradition highlights how visual characteristics influence terminology.
Fermentation: What Sets "Hei Cha" Apart Unlike black tea, "hei cha" (dark tea), such as ripe Pu-erh, undergoes post- fermentation, creating earthy, aged flavors. Black tea, however, is fully oxidized but not post-fermented.
