fermented. Their leaf colour ranges from light green to a silvery
sheen to a dark emerald green. Usually, the cup colour is rather
light. Depending on the variety and preparation, the taste varies
from slightly harsh or tart to pleasantly sweet and aromatic.
As a general rule, green teas should not be prepared with boiling
hot water, but the water should be allowed to cool down to
the desired temperature. As diverse as the tea plants, growing

areas and processing methods are, so are the preparation
recommendations. Depending on the type of tea and your own
preference, the water temperature could be 70 to 90 °C and the
infusion time 1 to 3 minutes. As a rule of thumb, the higher the
quality of the tea, the lower the water temperature and the longer
the infusion time. Green teas can be steeped several times. In
fact, many tea connoisseurs prefer the second and third infusion.
But this is also purely a matter of taste, and recommendations on
this fill many a guidebook.
