What is tea?

That's a good question! Tea is the second most consumed drink in the world, surpassed only by water. An often surprising fact for tea novices is that all teas (black, green, Oolong, white and Pu'erh) come from the same plant. The scientific name of this versatile plant is Camellia sinensis (in fact, it is related to the beautiful camellia flowers found in botanical gardens and landscapes).
