The majority of tea (pu’erh my beloved excluded) is not fermented it is oxidized.
Fermented: Silly lil guys do some magic to make flavour get funky. EX: pu’erh, wine, miso, bread
Oxidized: Oxygen, destroyer of worlds, wrecks havoc on the chemical structure of hapless molecules. EX: Guac that has gone brown, green, oolong, and black tea, rust.
