My second and newest tattoo! It’s a camellia sinensis branch, otherwise known as the tea plant! 🍵🍃
Fun Fact: My mother-in-law wanted a tattoo first and mentioned it while she was visiting, so we ended up going to get them done together! Unconventional bonding time 🥰

Disfruto ver como las hojas de té enrolladas se van hidratando y abriendo, pasando de ver una cantidad pequeña a utilizar mucho espacio... 🍃🫖

I’m sitting in a tea house in rural Japan when, sensing my enthusiasm, the owner asks if I’d like the honor of making another round. Despite the fact she doesn’t speak English — and my Japanese is limited to a perfunctory domo arigato — she patiently guides me through the delicate brewing process and smiles effusively when my untrained hands actually deliver a perfect cup of matcha.

How the fresh leaves of the tea plant are processed and their level of contact with oxygen determine resulting types of tea?
All tea comes from the Camellia sinensis plant, a warm-weather evergreen. During oxidation, tea leaves undergo natural chemical reactions that result in distinctive color and taste characteristics. Green tea is not oxidized at all—the leaves are steamed, rolled and dried while black tea is allowed to oxidize for two to four hours. Oolong tea falls somewhere between green and black teas, in that the leaves are only partially oxidized.

Tea is grown in thousands of tea gardens or estates around the world, resulting in thousands of flavorful variations. Like wines, each tea takes its name from the district in which it's grown, and each district is known for producing tea with unique flavor and character. Tea is also divided by grades, determined by leaf size. Smaller sized leaves are used in tea bags while the larger sized leaves can be found in packaged loose tea.
Herbal teas do not come from Camellia sinensis, but are an infusion of leaves, roots, bark, seeds or flowers of other plants. They lack many of the unique characteristics of tea and are not linked with the research on the potential health benefits of traditional teas.

General info - Tea is native to East Asia with possibly thousands of cultivars with 4 varities. It is an evergreen shrubs with white to yellow flowers.
Seeds of some cultivars are made into tea oil (not tea tree) It's made into a drink that is sometimes used as medicine. (it's also one of my favorite drinks) Technically the only tea made from Camellia sinensis plant is tea. It apparently first became popular as a recreational drink in the Tang dynasty, China.
Symbolism - young children, courage, healing, prosperity, riches.
