1. Caffeine content of black teas, compared to other teas

The caffeine content also varies greatly from one tea to the next and depends on how the tea is brewed--and it is not safe to assume that black tea contains more caffeine than green or other types of tea.

In general, black teas with more tips / leaf buds such as golden monkey are the most heavily-caffeinated of black teas, and souchongs, made out of larger leaves, are less caffeinated.

Black teas used in English Breakfast and Irish Breakfast blends are usually deliberately chosen for their moderate-to-high caffeine content.

2. Brewing black tea

Brewing tea is a complex art and is also a matter of peronal taste.

In general, black teas tend to taste best when brewed with boiling water.

A rare exception to this rule are a few of the lightest black teas, like some Darjeeling first flush, a few of which produce better results when brewed with water slightly below the boiling point.

3. Storing black tea

Black tea typically stays fresh and retains its flavor longer than green or white teas.

A typical black tea, properly stored in a dark, airtight container, can be stored for 2 years or more with little difference in flavor.

Some more delicate black teas, however, like Darjeeling first flush, do not always store as well.
