How can I tell what’s best in green teas?

A proven commodity, green tea helps fight many diseases.  But what is the best green tea you can buy and use?

It is said the favored and healthiest of green tea you should select is the first several leaves and perhaps a bud from a plant, just as young and healthy as possible.  Although the quality of a crop may vary each year, these should still be among the best, most useful you can obtain.

The Chinese do supposedly keep the best and do not sell prime crops to the public.  But with planning buyers should be able to obtain some of that “cream of the crop”.

Purchasing from one main source will usually mean the product is of a good quality.  When buying a blend from many different plantations there is always a risk of poor quality product being mixed in with the good.
