THERE ARE MANY LEGENDS
SURROUNDING THE ORIGINS
OF TEA, HOWEVER, ONE OF
THE MOST POPULAR IS
THE STORY OF THE CHINESE
EMPEROR SHEN NUNG.

As tradition has it, tea was discovered in 2737 BC by Chinese
Emperor Shen Nung, when tea leaves accidentally fell into his
hot water bowl. The liquid slowly turned golden and released
an aromatic scent tempting Shen Nung to taste it. The Emperor,
tired after a long day at the hunt, felt immediately refreshed and
invigorated; thus, was tea discovered!
