Q: What does 'oxidation' mean in the production of tea?

A: Oxidation is a process where tea leaves are exposed to oxygen, resulting in chemical reactions that change the color, flavor, and aroma of the tea. This process gives black tea its dark color and rich flavor. Green tea undergoes little to no oxidation, maintaining a greener color and lighter taste. Oolong tea is partially oxidized, offering a wide range of flavors.
