The Hidden Gems of Chinese Tea Culture

Tea in China isn’t just a drink—it’s a way of life. Beyond the famous green tea, here are some lesser-known varieties worth exploring:
• Pu’er (普洱茶): Fermented, earthy, and said to aid digestion.
• Oolong (乌龙茶): Floral and complex, perfect for relaxing afternoons.
• White Tea (白茶): Light and refreshing, great for summer.
• Chrysanthemum Tea (菊花茶): Herbal, soothing, and caffeine-free.

Visiting a tea house can feel like stepping into another world: traditional wooden décor, quiet corners, and tea masters guiding you through centuries-old rituals.

Next time you’re in China, skip the coffee and spend an afternoon at a tea house—you’ll discover a whole new side of the culture.

Would you try Chinese tea over coffee if you lived here?
