Green Tea

Branded herbal product

Green tea is tea made from leaves that have not been oxidized, preserving their green color and producing a lighter, more vegetal flavor than black tea.

It originated in China and remains central to East Asian tea culture.

Green tea is often associated with health benefits: She switched to green tea for the antioxidants.

The caffeine content is lower than coffee but still provides mild stimulation.
