Brewing temperature mainly Caffeine will extract faster with boiling water that you use for black tea than water that's 80 degrees or less that you use for green tea.Drezden wrote:I understand the logic between higher caffeine levels and less processed tea leaves, but what I'm talking about more is the bioavailability of the caffeine. I can drink green tea right before bed and fall asleep quickly, if I drank a black tea before bed I wouldn't be able to fall asleep.
What accounts for that? I mean the black tea is the most processed, yet gives me the biggest caffeine alert feeling?

I would agree with you if it were brewed hot. I always get a nice creaminess when I cold brew it.steanze wrote:I'd call Jin Xuan buttery - the tea oils give it also a texture that contributes to the "buttery" feeling
The name Jin Xuan stands out really strongly to me, I think that is the name of the buttery oolong I drank oh so long ago. Thank you! Also thank you to everyone's suggestions, I now have a bunch of different oolongs to try. ^^steanze wrote:I'd call Jin Xuan buttery - the tea oils give it also a texture that contributes to the "buttery" feeling
