But the supply is steadily increasing to fill the rising demand, and many internet vendors carry yellow tea in several varieties.There is much to like about yellow tea, as far as I’m concerned. It looks great, smells good, has at least as good health benefits as green tea, and it tastes much better, at least to my palate. Yellow tea is well set to become the next great success story in the world of tea.
