Ranked as the number one beverage consumed worldwide, tea takes the lead over coffee in
both popularity and production with more than 5 million metric tons of tea produced
annually. Although much of this tea is consumed in Asian, European and African countries,
the United States drinks its fair share. According to estimates by the Tea Council of the
United States, tea is enjoyed by no less than half of the U.S. population on any given day.
Black tea or green tea - iced, spiced, or instant - tea drinking has spurred a billion-dollar
business with major tea producers in Africa and South America and throughout Asia.
Tea is made from the leaves of an evergreen plant, Camellia sinensis, which grows tall and
lush in tropical regions. On tea plantation, the plant is kept trimmed to approximately four
feet high and as new buds called flush appear, they are plucked off by hand. Even in today’s
world of modern agricultural machinery, hand harvesting continues to be the preferred
method. Ideally, only the top two leaves and a bud should be picked. This new growth
produces the highest quality tea.
