Tea plants originated in China, although the ancient Chinese first used them for medicinal purposes before developing tea as a drink some 2,000 years ago, Later, they gradually learnt to grow tea plants and use the leaves to make various types of tea.
As regards the method of making tea, the Chinese variety can be classified into green tea,black tea, Wulong tea, scented tea, tuo tea (bowl-shaped compressed mass of tealeaves), and brick tea, each consisting of many types.
