Black tea gets its best flavor out of water that's been brought to boiling temperatures. Wikipedia says it's because "the higher temperatures are required to extract the large, complex, flavorful phenolic molecules found in fermented tea." And those high of temperatures ruins poor green and white teas and produces a bitter flavor (that's why green tea sometimes tastes like soap...the water is just too hot).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
