Green tea, originating in China, has a captivating history dating back to 2737 BC. According to legend, Emperor Shennong accidentally discovered it when a tea leaf blew into his boiling water.

The refreshing flavor led to its widespread consumption across Asian countries, including China, Japan, and India. Over time, green tea production spread to other East Asian regions.

Varieties of green tea differ based on factors like the type of Camellia sinensis used, growing conditions, and processing methods.
