Does anyone know how much polyphenol is in a cup of Chinese Green tea?
There's a lot of data I could find on Japanese Green tea but not
Chinese.

What sources of info have you found on japanese green tea? I would think it
would be difficult to make any generalization about chinese green tea
polyphenol content as would it not vary depending on the growing conditions,
the soil and the varietal? I'd love to know more about this.

Thanks,
Wendi

I've read in several places that white tea has more of the goodities than
green tea, but I wonder if they are comparing it to Chinese green, which is
often, if not usually roasted, or to Japanese sencha, which isn't?
