白茶与绿茶的区别

The core difference is craft: green tea is kill-green (pan-fired/steamed) to deactivate enzymes—unfermented; white tea is withered and dried only, neither roasted nor rolled—lightly fermented. White tea is covered in silvery down with a sweet, mellow, honey-like taste and can be stored at room temperature, improving with age; green tea is brisk with slight bitterness and best fresh, often refrigerated. White tea retains flavonoids and antioxidants more completely.
