Tea Story: The History of Tea

茶4

The history of tea dates from ancient China, almost 5,000 years ago. According to legend, tea was discovered by Chinese Emperor Shennong in 2732 B.C. when some leaves from a nearby wild tree fell into his pot of boiling water. Then the color of the boiled water became slightly yellow and had a pleasant scent. He was immediately interested in the resulting brew, and drank some. Legend says the Emperor described a warm feeling as he drank the intriguing brew, as if the liquid was investigating every part of his body.

It was discovered by Shennong's past experience of tasting a hundred herbs and judging that it is a kind of medicine. This is the most common saying about the origin of tea drinking in China.
