Hello, my friends!
Do you like to drink tea? It is "drinking tea", and not washing it down with some kind of hamburger or a piece of apple pie))
Just you and the tea. The atmosphere in the room is calm, no one is making noise, the TV is not working.
You can only hear the kettle on the stove singing its mysterious song.
It is precisely for such an ideal setting that tea is suitable, the photos of which I want to show you today.
This is the famous red Chinese tea "da hong pao", better known as the "Big Red Robe".
Why "red" is obvious. According to the Chinese classification, it belongs to the category of red teas.
But why is it a "robe", and even a "big one"?
As an explanation, we can cite a legend that says that a long time ago (in the 14th century), a student was on his way to take exams and received a "sunstroke" on the way.
It was near one of the monasteries. And the monks of this monastery gave the student this tea to make him feel better.
After that, he successfully passed his exam and received a large red robe as a badge of the position he was applying for.
Then the student decided to thank the monks and give this robe to them. But they, following the traditions of Buddhism, refused the gift.
And the student gave me a big red robe... the tea bush. That's such a beautiful legend.
I took pictures in macro mode. I also used an additional lens to zoom in on the image.
This tea has a very recognizable, pleasant taste. Having tasted it even once, you will always remember its taste.
I invite you to a tea party!
