Contents: China is the home country of tea. Before the Tang Dynasty, Chinese tea was exported by land and sea, first to Japan and Korea, then to India and Central Asia and, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, to Arabian Peninsula. In the early period of the 17th century, Chinese tea was exported to Europe, where the upper class adopted the fashion of drinking tea. Chinese tea, like Chinese silk and china, made an outstanding contribution to the world's material and spiritual civilization. With Chinese tea and tea culture as the object of study, this book deals with the origin of tea, its history, the methods and customs of drinking tea, drinking vessels and other rich vivid information. In this book the reader can read many interesting stories about Chinese tea and tea culture.
