China was the first country recorded to ever drink tea. So therefore Chinese tea has been around ever since the first discovery of the beverage. The origin of tea is shrouded in mysteries however though it is said to have been first discovered about five thousand years ago. So that would make Chinese tea about five thousand years old! You must remember though that there are many interpretations on the origin.

The Chinese still prepare their tea leaves much the same way they did a thousand years ago. Small farmers grow and prepare the tea for sale and buyers come to deal with the Chinese government on the price. Some of the best tea in the world comes from China.
