中国是茶的故乡,中国人饮茶的历史有四千多年了。从神农发现茶叶以后的数千年间,人们饮用的一直是绿茶,直到一千多年以前茶叶的制作工艺开始有了新的方法以后,红茶和乌龙茶等一些茶的种类才开始出现了。中国有句俗话,“开门七件事,柴米油盐酱醋茶”,茶作为一种最通常的饮料,人们是最熟悉不过了。自古以来,人们在喝茶的过程当中,逐渐把茶演变成了一种文化,一种时尚,一种生活的品位。 China is the hometown of tea. The history of Chinese tea drinking has been more than four thousand years. People used to drink green tea for thousands of years after Shennong’s discovery of the tea. Only after some 1,000 years ago the production of tea began to take a new approach, some types of tea such as black tea and oolong tea began to appear. There is a saying in China that “one of the seven things to open the door to, the tea, the salt, the vinegar and tea,” tea is one of the most common drinks, and people are most familiar with it. Since ancient times, people gradually evolved into a culture of tea, a fashion, a taste of life in the process of drinking tea.
