I’m doing my research now. Black tea does contain epigallocatechin gallate but in much lower quantities because of the fermentation process of black tea leaves.

We drink about a gallon of home-made iced tea a day in my house. I’m going to start adding some green tea to the black tea and see how that tastes. It can’t hurt.
