Evolution of Green Tea: Going from Traditional to Variety in No Time

Green tea has become so much more these days. Green tea has a long past, just like its taste. It was first grown in China thousands of years ago and was valued only for its healing qualities and ceremonial meaning. People worldwide have seen green tea change from a simple traditional brew to a popular drink that comes in many flavours. 

Green tea isn't just a classic blend anymore; it's an important part of wellness culture and comes in a lot of different flavours to fit everyone's tastes, moods, and preferences. From traditional green tea to newer varieties, this trip has been exciting and shows how our relationship with this old drink has changed.

The Origins of Green Tea

Green tea traces its roots to China, where it was primarily used as a medicine. Later, it found a home in Japan, where tea ceremonies and Zen practices became synonymous with the drink. In both cultures, green tea was prepared in a ceremonial manner, focusing on mindfulness, balance, and appreciation of its delicate flavour.

For centuries, this pure and simple preparation remained unchanged. It was revered for its antioxidant properties, ability to refresh, and purported benefits in aiding digestion, lowering cholesterol, and boosting immunity. However, as trade expanded, green tea began to spread to other parts of the world, becoming a staple in many regions.

Green Tea’s Modern Evolution

As green tea entered the global marketplace, it underwent a remarkable transformation. With the wellness movement on the rise, the demand for green tea skyrocketed. People sought health benefits, variety, and innovation in flavour profiles. Consumers began to crave diversity in their daily tea routine, leading brands like Roastea to develop an impressive array of green tea varieties to meet these evolving preferences.
