It is known that China is the first country to grow, produce and drink tea. In 2022, it was on the UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritage. Let’s know more about it.
Although there are hundreds of kinds of Chinese tea, we can find several basic kinds. For example, green tea has the longest history with the largest production, such as longjing and maofeng. But too much green tea is bad for sleeping. Black tea is named for its special tea leaves. It tastes sweet and is good for health. Oolong tea which is mainly produced in Fujian, Guangdong and Taiwan, is most famous for dahongpao. This orange-red tea comes with an unusual smell.
Tea is important in Chinese people’s daily life. They drink tea everywhere. It’s also the tradition in China to make tea for friends, which means respecting as well as sharing something enjoyable. Recently, taking a break for “stone-boiled” tea with friends is a fashion, which shows tea is more popular for Chinese young people.
Tea has a great influence for the world, too. More and more foreigners love Chinese tea. “What Chinese tea has brought to me means a lot to me.” As a Chinese tea lover, Sang, an American man, has taught about tea since 2012. “As I teach my friends, most of them get the art of tea and love it. I want to share Chinese tea with more people, and at the same time share the friendly Chinese friends and the colorful Chinese culture.”
So you see, a cup of tea connects different places, connects you and me, connects the West and China, and shows the character and life of Chinese people.

Hot pot is very popular in China. People put a metal pot in the middle of a dining table, and while the water in the pot is boiling (滚热的), people put the ingredients into it and cooked in the pot.
