Description
The practice of drinking Green Tea (camellia sinuses) was brought to Japan by monks returning from their studies at the great Zen monasteries of 12th century China. For them¸ tea functioned as an aid to meditation¸ as a health aid¸ and as a tool to propagate Zen. As the years went by¸ tea and the reason for drinking it changed¸ but it never went out of fashion.
Today¸ Green Tea is one of the three major non-alcoholic beverages in the world. Green Tea is a typical non-fermented tea that is enjoyed by many and is immensely popular in Japan. It is utilized as both a daily beverage and as a healthful drink. Green Tea contains a rich natural source of polyphenols and bioflavonoids. Recent studies have identified the valuable active constituents of Green Tea and continue to review its historical uses.
