People believed that tea brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. In England, tea didn’t appear until around 1660, but in less than 100 years, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea.

神农说
唐.陆羽《茶经》:“茶之为饮,发乎神农氏。”,在中国的文化发展史上,往往是把一切与农业、与植物相关的事物起源最终都归结于神农氏。而中国饮茶起源于神农的说法也因民间传说而衍生出不同的观点。有人认为茶是神农在野外以釜锅煮水时,刚好有几片叶子飘进锅中,煮好的水,其色微黄,喝入口中甘甜止渴、提神醒脑,以神农过去尝百草的经验,判断它是一种药而发现的,这是有关中国饮茶起源最普遍的说法。
另有说法则是从语音上加以附会,说神农有个水晶肚子,由外观可得见食物在胃肠中蠕动的情形,当他尝茶时,发现茶在肚内到处流动,茶来茶去,把肠胃洗涤得干干净净,因此神农称这种植物为“查”,再转成“茶”字,而成为茶的起源。
陆羽,出生于湖北天门,生活在唐朝时期,他撰写的《茶经》,对有关茶树的产地、形态、生长环境以及采茶、制茶、饮茶的工具和方法等进行了全面的总结,是世界上第一部茶叶专著。《茶经》成书后,对中国茶文化的发展影响极大,陆羽被后世尊称为“茶神”、“茶圣”、“茶博士”。
