Teas that are allowed to fully oxidize are referred to as
“fully-processed”. These teas are often oxidized over night, and are
often subject to secondary processes like additional baking/toasting to
add specific flavors. Fully-processed teas have a rich amber color when
brewed, and offer a very full flavor. Although not as high as in the
unfermented and semi-fermented teas, the fully-fermented teas still
offer good polyphenol benefits. It is said in China that fully processed
teas (Black and Dark Teas) are like older people, fully mature,
experienced, that they stay for a long time, and have a sweet
aftertaste.
