Introduction

Tea was first discovered in China in 2737 BC tea has been one of the most popular beverages across the world. Tea is the second-most consumed beverage, just after water. Tea is produced from tea leaves or buds of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis).
Camellia sinensis, the primary source of tea leaves, is cultivated mainly in tropical and subtropical climates. The conditions are available in many parts of Asia. As a result, there is no surprise that eight countries in the top tea producing countries are located on this continent. However it’s commercially produced by more than 60 countries.
It would seem by happy coincidence that tea was first discovered by Chinese Emperor Shen Nong, who first tasted the beverage when he and his soldiers were busy sheltering under a tree. Several windblown leaves fell into a pot of boiling water, which in turn infused into the water and tea as a beverage became a reality.

Historical Chinese Tea Culture

Since the 8th century tea has steadily spread along numerous trade routes through the Middle East and Himalaya into northern India, eventually reaching these shores by the 17th century via Holland.
Whether or not this tale is a little tall doesn’t really matter, whatever the truth of its origins tea rapidly became a staple within Asian culture, as a drink, a medicinal cure all and a symbolic part of religious rituals.
