Tealeaves produce organic compounds that help defend the plant against infection. These same compounds are preserved in both green and black tea, and have been shown to inhibit the spread and growth of the flu virus. Numerous studies have found that both tea and tea extracts significantly reduces the incidence of flu in the young, elderly, and healthcare workers who are at higher risk of infection.

For a long time after the Dutch traders brought the first leaves to Europe in the early 17th century, the only option was green Tea from China. Then, when the British developed a voracious appetite for the new drink in the 19th century they set about cultivating and producing the tea themselves. Soon they had mastered the process, setting up huge tea gardens in every corner of their colonial empire where climatic conditions were favorable. They began to develop new strains of tea, tailored to suit their tastes, and invented new production techniques. The Europeans were delighted with the new darker and stronger varieties, and this marked the beginning of Black Teas dominance of the European Market. ENGLISH BREAKFAST - A blend of China Black Keemun teas. Named after the English who felt the bold flavor of this blend was enhanced by adding milk.

Ethyl acetate is the most common method of decaffeination. Ethyl acetate is a by-product of natural fruit acid, is not carcinogenic, and removes 98% of the caffeine from the tea. ENGLISH BREAKFAST DECAF. - Same great taste as English Breakfast, only decaffeinated.
