Camellia sinensis is a species of evergreen shrub or small tree in the flowering plant family Theaceae. Its leaves and leaf buds are used to produce black and green Tea. Common names include tea plant, tea shrub, and tea tree.
Camellia sinensis is a species from which all true teas are derived, including black tea, green tea, white tea, oolong tea, and others. The processing methods and oxidation levels applied to the leaves of Camellia sinensis determine the type of tea produced. Black tea undergoes a significant level of oxidation, resulting in a dark color and robust flavor. So, while Camellia sinensis is the plant used to produce black tea, it is not exclusively limited to black tea production.
