Tea and Me

Tea has a long history dating back thousands of years in China in the Yunnan region. Presently, it is a famous tea growing region where there are trees dating several centuries and grown as a tree and not a bush. Where tea pickers actually climb trees and not pluck from bushes.

My journey from a cultural point of view has been more of a medicine growing up rather than a tea drink, which is described in the 21st century as a social drink derived from the British habit of afternoon tea.

We will embark on a journey that is embracing the traditions of the past with the excitement of rediscovery of tea is to us now.
