Tea Basics

We define tea as: the infusion of any plant material creating an enjoyable beverage. Herbal infusions can be traced back to 7000 BC, while the brewing of so-called regular tea (from the tea bush) began in China, perhaps around 2000 BC.

Tea and Health

Tea has been an important part of Chinese medicine for 5000 years. In recent years, and on a continuing basis, the medical community has published reports on the positive effects of tea for health and well-being.
