Tea Story

The story goes that the goddess Guanyin appeared to a poor Chinese farmer called Wei, who used to clean a temple dedicated to her. As a reward, she directed him to a treasure in a cave behind the temple, asking him to share it with others. Wei found and planted a tea shoot, which grew into a large bush and yielded a very fine tea. He gave cuttings of this rare plant to all his neighbours and began selling the tea under the name Tieguanyin, by which it became popular around the world.
