Question

Passage
Let us begin with a question : can you name the most widely consumed beverage in
the world, after water?
Perhaps many of you have guessed the answer the most popular beverage in the
world is tea the fresh, aromatic brew with which people like to begin their day. It has a
refreshing, astringent flavour. It is actually made by brewing, that is by infusing in boiling
water, the leaves and shoots of a plant whose botanical name is the Camellia sinensis. The
leaves are at first dricd, cured and processed before they are packed and sold to us.
Camellia sinensis is an evergreer plant that grows in tropical and sub-tropical
climates. Tea plants require at least 100-125 cm of rainfall a year and preſer acidic soils.
Many of the world's best
tea estates are lucated on hill slopes at elevations of up to 1500
metres: it is said that the tea plants grow slowly and acquire a richer flavour at this height.
When the plants mature, only the top 1-2 inches of the plant are picked. These buds
and leaves are called flushes. A new flush appears on the plant every seven to ten days
during the peak growing season. Left to grow on its own, the tea plant may actually grow
into a small tree. But in all tea gardens, the plants are pruned and kept at a height of about
three feet (waist high) to enable easy plucking of the leaves.
The tess we buy are usually classified according to their leaf size. Accordingly we
have (1) Assam type of tea, characterised by the largest leaves: (2) China type, characterised
by the smallest leaves; and (3) Cambod, characterised by leaves of intermediate size.
We have three very distinct and different tea growing regions in India. Each of these
regions is famous for the special type of tea it produces, which are unique in taste, aroma,
strength and flavour. The three regions are : Darjeeling in North-Eastern India,19Assam in
far North-Last India and Nilgiris in South India.
