There are around 3000 types of teas, each taking its common name from the district in which it is grown - China tea, Ceylon tea and Darjeeling tea being some of the better known types.
Teas have been part of the civilised world for many centuries, their first recorded appearances being in texts from Japan and China. The Japanese tea ceremonies, and the European reliance on the traditional 'cuppa' for visitors, are well known. Tea ceremonies are traditionally carried out to a strict regime.
