Chinese huangcha


Chinese name
Traditional Chinese黃茶
Simplified Chinese黄茶
Literal meaningYellow tea

It is an increasingly rare and expensive variety of tea.[3]:58 The process for making yellow tea is similar to that of green but with an added step of encasing[further explanation needed] and steaming the tea. This allows the tea to oxidize at a slow rate for a short period before the tea is heated fully to denature the oxidizing enzymes, producing a far more mellow taste than is found in most green teas; this also gives the leaves a slightly yellow coloring during the drying process.[3]:32 Yellow tea is often placed in the same category with green tea due to its light oxidation. One of the primary aims of making yellow tea is to remove the characteristic grassy smell of green tea.

IPA[hwaŋ.tɕʰa]

In Korean tea terminology wherein domestic tea is categorized mainly as either green tea (nokcha; 녹차) or fermented tea (balhyocha; 발효차) – "fermented" practically meaning "oxidized" with this term[4] – "yellow tea" (hwangcha) is used to denote lightly oxidized balhyocha without implications of processing methods or a result that would qualify the tea as "yellow tea" in the Chinese definition.[4] Unlike Chinese huángchá, Korean hwangcha is made similarly to oolong tea or lightly oxidized black tea, depending on who makes it – the key feature is a noticeable but otherwise relatively low level of oxidation which leaves the resulting tea liquor yellow in color.[citation needed]

[de] Gelber Tee

Gelber Tee (Gelbtee) ist ein Tee, der vom Fermentationsgrad (max. 20 %) zwischen weißem Tee und Oolong einzuordnen ist. Seine Sortenvielfalt ist sehr begrenzt, die verfügbaren Mengen gering.[1] Der Tee ist reich an Vitaminen, Antioxidantien und Koffein.[2] Wie auch andere schwach fermentierte Tees fördert er die Magensaftproduktion und wirkt deshalb verdauungsfördernd.[3][4]
