To the Chinese people taking tea is not simply for quenching thirst or curing diseases, the process of brewing and tasting tea embraces the inner meanings of respecting nature, returning to nature, the harmony between man and nature and the harmony between people. Tea drinkers appreciate the color, aroma, texture, flavor and charm of tea, and also the delicacy of tea wares. While enjoying the grace of tea, classical poetry, literature and arts, they find their spiritual sustenance in tea and their temperament will also be molded by tea. Tea drinkers cultivate their mind and moral character, calm their impetuous temperament and soothe the conflicts by immersing themselves in the tea tasting aura of peace, respect, purity and tranquility. These are the essence and beauty of Chinese tea Culture.
