Green tea originated in the Southwest area of China about 3000 years ago. In those days green tea were either chewed or eaten, but over time they discovered that they can flavour the water they drink.
In the 8th century they started steaming the leaves to inhibit oxidation and by the 12th century they started a frying method where they “fixed” the leaves to keep them from oxidating. This drastically improved the taste of green tea and these methods are still used today.
Lets face it, green tea does not have the best taste in the world, but over time you get use to it and will surely begin to enjoy the interesting aroma and taste. Green tea can be excellent for your health. Did you know in Japan the average time of death, for the elderly, is 87?
