These acids play a crucial role in shaping the flavor profile of the
tea. The levels of acidity can vary depending on factors such as
the tea plant variety, growing conditions, and processing methods.
Additionally, the terroir of the tea-growing region, including
factors like soil composition and climate, can influence the acidity
of the tea leaves. During the growth and development of the tea
plant, environmental factors and the plant’s metabolic processes
contribute to the accumulation of these organic acids.
Growing Conditions:
Soil composition and environmental factors, such as climate and
altitude, can influence the accumulation of oxalic acid in tea leaves.
Plants may produce more oxalic acid as a response to stress, such as
nutrient deficiencies or environmental challenges.
Leaf Position:
Oxalic acid levels can vary in different parts of the tea plant. Young
leaves and buds may contain higher concentrations of oxalic acid
compared to older leaves.
Processing Methods:
The methods used to process tea leaves can affect the oxalic acid
content. Oxalic acid is water-soluble, so the extent to which tea
leaves are oxidized, fermented, or undergo other processing steps can
influence the final oxalic acid concentration in the tea.
