What is the fermentation of tea leaves?

Speaking of tea, people often say that full fermentation, semi-fermentation, and light fermentation are the same fermentation as our common fermented foods, such as yogurt, wine, vinegar, etc. What are their differences? Let’s learn about the fermentation of tea .

what is fermentation?

The so-called fermentation usually refers to a certain decomposition process of organic matter by organisms. The phenomenon of fermentation has been known for a long time, but it has been nearly 200 years to understand its nature. Fermentation, strictly defined by microbial physiology: The process by which organic matter is oxidatively degraded by organisms into oxidative products and release energy is collectively referred to as biooxidation.

Fermentation as defined in industrial production, industrial fermentation.

Industrial production generally refers to all industrial production that relies on the life activities of microorganisms as fermentation, such as beer brewing, monosodium glutamate production, etc. Fermentation in food: Fermented food refers to a type of food processed and manufactured by people using beneficial microorganisms, with unique flavors, such as yogurt, cheese, wine, pickles, soy sauce, vinegar, tempeh, rice wine, beer, wine, etc.

Fermentation of tea, biological oxidation

It is often said that Chinese tea is divided into six major categories according to the degree of tea fermentation and comprehensive production method. However, the term fermentation here, in the customary context of Chinese tea, is completely different from the above-mentioned microbial fermentation.
