Much of tea flavor seems to be related to processing and the amount of fermentation, or lack thereof, that occurs in the tea leaves. Some of this fermentation is natural and some manmade. Certain teas are tied to certain places because of the minerals present in those particular that produce distinct flavors in a brew. These elements of terroir do contribute to the wide variety of teas on the market today, though there are similarities in teas which were processed the same way and also originated from the same regions.
