All About Green Tea

Friday, September 25, 2009 - - 2 Comments





Point Of Origin



Green Tea, Chinese tea, and the black tea from India or Sri Lanka are all made with leaves from the same bush, Camellia sinensis.










Harvest Time


The Taepyongyang company's tea plantations at Boseong employ dozens of women during the brief tea-picking season between April and June.










Formal Ceremony




Holding their cups in both hands, first admire the color, then inhale the fragrance, then drink and savor the aftertaste.










Tools of the Trade


Korean potters copy some of the country's finest ancient pottery to create a Korean style of tea service.
