I mean I get a burning sensation in my abdomen. It makes me feel like
I want to eat something. Eating usually makes it go away. I think the
teas that cause this the most are sencha's and Taiwan oolongs which
are very lightly oxidized. Heavily oxidized oolongs and black teas
cause this the least. For sencha's I think organic sencha's, which
seem lighter, cause this less. The teas that cause more of a burning
sensation also seem to cause more of a caffeine rush too. So, what
causes the burning? My guess is caffeine and cathecins.
