The diagram shows how tea leaves are processed into five tea types. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The diagram illustrates the processing of
tea
leaves into different types namely white, green, oolong, large-leaf black and small-leaf black tea
.
Initially
, the first three steps of manufacturing the five types of tea
remain the same. Firstly
, tea
leaves need to attain suitable growth which then
allows for plucking of these leaves for further
processes. Secondly
, they are subjected to wilting which is also
called withering.
At this
point, the leaves undergo different methods to obtain various varieties of tea
. Steaming is a method used to produce green tea
. After
this
, it undergoes rolling along with
the oolong and large-leaf black tea
. On the contrary
, to produce small-leaf black tea
, the leaves are crushed. Next,
both varieties of black tea
are fully fermented whereas
the oolong tea
is just slightly fermented.Subsequently
, all the types are dried in an oven, to produce the unique tea
varieties. However
, to produce white tea
no further
methods need to be employed after withering and they can be dried directly in the oven, unlike the other four.Submitted by anuvsim on
