China's traditional culture introduction tea culture

Chinese tea culture can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou Dynasties in 3000 BC, when tea was used as medicine. Tea has always occupied an important position in Chinese history and is considered one of the most important parts of Chinese culture.

Chinese tea culture encompasses the creation of tea, its production, tasting, appreciation and socialization. Tea is very important to the Chinese, not only as a drink, but also as a symbol of culture, spirituality and art. For the Chinese, tea is a way to pursue spirituality and taste.

The making of tea requires a strict process, from selecting tea, sieving tea, frying tea, kneading tea, cooling tea, drying tea and so on, each part of the process requires specialized knowledge and skills. When tasting tea, you have to pour the tea into a teacup, view the color, smell and form of the tea, and then taste the flavor and texture of the tea.

Tea culture is also an integral part of Chinese social life. Tea can be used for entertaining guests, expression of friendship, communication between relatives and friends, and other occasions. Tea culture not only brings people a comforting experience, but also an enlightening thought and an expression of sensibility.
