Chinese Tea

Tea, first discovered and used drugs began. ”Shen Nong tasted one hundred herbs for medicines 72 days, the tea time.” Jinzhang Hua solution “Natural History” is also a “Do beverages really very little sleep,” the statement. Hongjing “hybrids,” says “light-weight-for bone-Ming Tu, former Danciu son Huang Chun-service.” In fact, the record of tea drinking on Danciu child too early, adopted here in the Han Dynasty “wonderful spirit”: Yuyao people Yu Hung, Ming in the mountains. Met a Taoist priests, towing three young cattle, leading to the waterfall, a mountain flood, said: “I Danciu pregnancy. Drink smell too good with kids just often see advantages. The mountains are big tea can be compared to, pray with future ou son living begging, while the left too. “revered by the legislature was. Often, after the family made in the mountains, was a great Ming Yan. Danciu son of the Han Dynasty “fairy” tea culture in one of the oldest Taoist figure in the history of the waterfall Yuyao mountain tea mountain. So the big tea “and” Fairy Tea “is also in full compliance with the record company. Adopt these issues in the plate, “Tu” and “Tea”, that is, today’s tea. Made a surprise to us that as early as the Jin Guo Pu in the comment, “Ya,” that is said: (tea) tree small, like the gardenia, Dong-Sheng Ye, a funeral, Shu name of the bitter tea. Herein called “Shu” in records, custom to drink tea as the earliest in the ancient Ba and Shu bud. Han was still in the pot “food Bogey”, says: “Bitter Tea Ware, a long life-Feather.” All this shows that tea began to be used if the link is and medicine.
Tu and tea, the Soviet Christine Tang Xianqing years, Sun and other loud, Oppression “Tang Materia Medica”, for the tea before the tea Tu variants set. The Tu’s first official historical records is “Book of Songs, of which several references Tu words such as” In Feng. Wind Valley “in the” Who said that Tu bitter, his willingness to act as water chestnut “,” Feng Zheng. OutThe East Gate “in” and women as Tu “,” Bin Feng. July “in the” mining salary Ailanthus Tu “,” Bin Feng. Owl “in” the smoothed Tu “,” Daya. Cotton Poetry “in” Tu as TH Yee “and” Zhou song. Good plow “to” pull Tu Polygonum, Polygonum red only Tu “, which means each bitter herbs, flowers and ground offensive Mao grass, and was not used for tea, a clear link. Tea in the diet, though the precise numbers in the Han Dynasty, Wang Bao, “about children” in the “Wu Yang to buy Tu”, “Tu to do the cooking with” language, cooking, to eat. cited also, depending on the “Tai Ping Yu Lan” 大 67, the words in the San Guowei written book “Guang Ya” in such a record, “Jing tea between Pakistan bread made into a paste made from rice. If Sunburn first drink as red, track, and set the end of the porcelain in order to cover the pouring soup with vegetables Congjiang. Kater their drinking water, is not sleep. “indicates that the first tea in the diet, as I said Lu Yu is onions, ginger, orange paper and other materials are included for cooking and drinking tea and soup, as used in cooking to decoction and thirst, or fin, two meals, not just to drink. Sun Tang fashion a “tea for food, the same as in rice and salt” argument. Probably a pure tea drink in the middle of the Tang Lu Yu “tea”, as Lu Yu and his “tea” step by step in the promotion and advice, the people in the tea additives reduce tea slowly transformed into a simple drink. Shows that the first tea into the diet, both to drink fresh or medical products, and if the tea as a food has nothing to do with cultural ceremonies and other temples do.
