The culture of drinking tea is older than Hadrian’s Wall. It’s been around longer than the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and is older still than Stonehenge. For more than 5000 years people have indulged in the soothing sensations produced from supping a mellow cup of tea. In its birthplace of China tea drinking was recognised as one of the seven necessities of life and a form of daily medicine
. It has since spread to become a daily habit and a source of relaxation for countless millions of people in every country across the world. Whilst drunk in vast quantities, a lot of the tea people drink on a daily basis is a pale imitation of the truly authentic teas that exist in the world.
