1 Introduction

In Germany, a country with a deeply rooted tea culture, there is a clear preference for black tea. This article explores why black tea is preferred over green tea.

2. Historical roots of tea culture in Germany

German tea culture, especially in regions such as East Frisia, has a long history that is closely linked to the consumption of black tea.

3. Taste preferences: strength and robustness

The strong taste of black tea often corresponds to the German sense of taste. Traditional preparation methods that favor a strong brew have reinforced this preference.

4. The role of tradition and ritual

Drinking tea in Germany is not just a drink, but also a part of cultural heritage, especially in northern Germany, where tea ceremonies and social gatherings take place around tea consumption.

5. Climatic influences on tea consumption

In Germany, where the climate is often cold and rainy, a hot, strong black tea offers a warming and comforting effect.

6. Health awareness and new trends

While green tea is known for its health benefits, awareness of these benefits is only slowly beginning to penetrate Germany's traditional tea culture.

7. Conclusion

The preference for black tea in Germany is deeply rooted in history, culture and climatic conditions, with new trends slowly making their way.
