All teas are not created equal.  All three of these teas are green teas, each of a different quality.

And this is the highest quality of green tea.  Surprising, isn’t it?  While my mom was living in China, she learned that the best teas are tightly rolled and full of flavor.  The leaves unfurl and release the natural essence of the tea, and a much smaller quantity is needed to achieve a deep, satisfying flavor.
