This process includes oxidation of the Wu Yi tea leaves, then heating, and then finally if the producer wishes they can add spices, herbs or anything that will make the tea taste different.

The five generictypes of tea are Oolong (the same thing as Wu Long), Black tea, green tea, white tea, and Wu Yi tea. Besides basic drinking water tea is one of the most popular choice of a drinking beverage. The amazing thing about tea is that it has prety much zero calories. Wu Yi tea has next to no carbohydrates, zero fat, and zero protien, and unlike water tea does have a distinct taste to it which is some-what bitter and spicey. Depending on how the tea is made it may or may not have any caffeine in it.
