Hongyacha, a new type of wild tea plant from the mountains of southern China, contains little or no caffeine, according to a study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.


[Hongyacha is a wild tea plant only distributed in the narrow mountain area at altitudes of 2,300-3,300 feet (700-1,000 m) of several neighboring villages in the southern region of Fujian Province," said lead author Dr. Liang Chen from China`s Tea Research Institute and colleagues.

[Local people believe that drinking this tea can reduce internal heat, cure colds, and heal stomach pains, etc."

[However, given its narrow and special distribution, detailed information about hongyacha is lacking."

In the new study, Dr. Chen and co-authors characterized the chemical components of hongyacha by using high-performance liquid chromatography.

They found that buds and leaves of hongyacha contain several potentially health-promoting compounds and virtually no caffeine.


Digging deeper, the team found that hongyacha has a mutation in the gene encoding the enzyme tea caffeine synthase, which promotes caffeine production in most tea plants.
