In China “Tea” is indispensable in people’s lives. The art of tea: learning to recognize tea, preparing tea, tasting tea, and feeling the charm of the tea brewing have become the pleasure of tea lovers.

Tea drinking has a long and storied history in China. Tea drinking originated in China and since then Chinese tea culture has developed and flowered. The legend has it that tea was ‘discovered’ by Emperor Shen Nung in 2737 BC when the wind blew some tea leaves into his cup of hot water. Despite tea having been part of the Chinese culture and used as medicine for centuries before, it turned into a popular drink in the 200’s AD. Tea cultivation, harvesting and consumption became more and more celebrated through the centuries, becoming an important tradition and its ceremonial presentation came to be a form of art.
