It is said that tea calms and harmonizes the mind, relieves fatigue, awakens thoughts and has been with us since time immemorial.
History of Tea
So it probably won't surprise anyone that the first book about tea comes from China and dates back to 780 AD. During the Japanese historical period Kamakura (1192-1333), tea was even elevated to an art form and so-called tea ceremonies began to be held.
Europeans had to wait until the beginning of the 17th century for the celebrated drink. From that moment on, tea was no longer absent at many key historical events and accompanied the lives of a number of important personalities of political and cultural life. When we browse through historical sources at random, we find that...
-
revenues from the tea trade helped the British finance the Napoleonic Wars;
-
With a bit of exaggeration, we can say that the American War of Independence was started by tea, although it ended in December 1773 at the bottom of the sea in Boston Harbor;
-
Albert Einstein was accompanied by a cup of black tea during his calculations, interestingly, he only drank coffee decaffeinated;
-
Dostoevsky basically made his own tea, he was convinced that no one else could do it so well. He created his world-famous works sipping black tea;
-
i The Chronicles of Narnia were created over a cup of tea, their author was the Irish writer C.S. Lewis famously said: "There is no cup of tea and book long enough to really satisfy me .”
-
British Queen Elizabeth II has been accompanied by Earl Gray black tea during her seventy-year reign with a drop of milk and without sugar.
It is no wonder that we also pay a lot of attention to the drink, which for centuries has been the companion of the most prominent personalities of its time.
