Green or unfermented (un-oxidized) originated around the late twelfth century. It accounts for over 50% of all the teas produced in China, even discounting the amount going to make jasmine tea. It is grown in all tea-growing provinces and is often sold by the province name followed by just "green." There are far too many varieties to mention; only a few teas in each category can be mentioned in this catalogue. In China, "ten thousand teas," is often said to indicate how big the tea industry is or a large number, which cannot be exactly specified; in other words it would be the Chinese way of saying "all the tea in China."
