Socio-cultural history of tea had not been well-studied field in the Soviet historiography, but in the recent years, some of historians work on this theme because of the diversification of subjects in the Russian historiography. The paper provides an overview of early encounters of tea in Russia in the sixteenth and seventeenth century, comparing with other beverages that were drunk at that time. The paper sheds light on the two supply routes of tea to Russia, one from Mongolia and China, and the other from Europe. Drinking of brick tea did not become a custom in the 18th century, but tea consumption had bloomed since 19th century, rapidly increasing the import of tea. The main part of the paper clarifies how Russian- Chines trade at Khakhta had been interrelated to the consumption of tea in Russia. Finally, the paper shows how the Russian tea culture formation followed a different path from that of the tea culture of Europe.

  • Notes on the History of Tea
    Notes on the History of Tea It is surprising how incomplete our knowledge is. We are all aware that we import coffee from tropical America. But where do we obtain our tea? What is tea? From what plant does it come? How long have we been drinking it? All these questions passed through my mind as I read the manuscript of the pre- ceding article. To answer some of my questions, and yours, I gathered together the following notes. The tea of commerce consists of the more or less fermented, rolled and dried immature leaves of Camellia sinensis. There are two botanical varieties of the tea plant. One, var. sinensis, the original chinese tea, is a shrub up to 20 feet tall, native in southern and western Yunnan, spread by cultivation through- out southern and central China, and introduced by cultivation throughout the warm temperate regions of the world. The other, var. assamica, the Assam tea, is a forest tree, 60 feet or more tall, native in the area between Assam and southern China. Var. sinensis is apparently about as hardy as Camellia japonica (the common Camellia). The flowers are white, nodding, fra- grant, and produced variously from June to January, but usually in October. The name is derived from the chinese Te. An alter- nate chinese name seems to be cha, which passed into Hindi and Arabic as chha, anglicized at an early date as Chaw. The United States consumes about 115 million pounds of tea annually. The major tea exporting countries are India, Ceylon, Japan, Indonesia, and the countries of eastern Africa.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. An Exploratory Value Chain Analysis for Burmese Pickled Tea (LAPHET) A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of AgriCommerce in Agribusiness Institute of Agriculture and Environment MASSEY UNIVERSITY Palmerston North, NEW ZEALAND SO PYAY THAR 2016 i ABSTRACT Laphet (pickled tea) is a well-known traditional cuisine of Myanmar consisting of tea leaves fermented into a pickle. It has a unique taste different from tea used for drinking and has health benefits. Despite the fact that pickled tea is a popular food in Myanmar, no research has been done to analyse its value chain and evaluate its potential in the global market. This study is an exploratory research and aims to examine the value chain of pickled tea from production to the final consumer and to evaluate how to improve the quality in the value chain. In addition, the improvements to the integrity to the pickled tea value chain are addressed. The value chain analysis revealed the maJor actors in the pickled tea value chain and described the process as tea leaves pass through several intermediaries with value being added at each stage before reaching the end consumer. The chain is governed by wholesalers and manufacturers who have capital advantage over the other chain actors. Therefore, farmers get the lower share of the price margin.

  • The Inhibitory Effects of Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis) on the Growth and Proliferation of Oral Bacteria
    THE INHIBITORY EFFECTS OF GREEN TEA (CAMELLIA SINENSIS) ON THE GROWTH AND PROLIFERATION OF ORAL BACTERIA Margaret Axelrod, Sean Berkowitz, Raina Dhir, Veronica Gould, Arjun Gupta, Eric Li, Jane Park, Amar Shah, Kevin Shi, Christelle Tan, Ming-Ming Tran Advisor: Mrs. Rachel Sandler Assistant: Tina Varghese ABSTRACT Camellia sinensis, commonly known as green tea, has been shown to possess antimicrobial properties and to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease and periodontal diseases. This study investigates the effects of brewing green tea at varying concentrations and durations on its antimicrobial activity against common oral bacteria, such as Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Staphylococcus epidermis. Gram stain tests revealed that our bacteria cultures had a mixture of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. A paper disk diffusion test revealed that increasing the concentration of green tea and decreasing brewing time increased the zones of inhibition; the tea brewed at a concentration of 80 mg/mL for 20 minutes had the greatest antibacterial effect. In the mouthwash paper disk diffusion test, a new bottle of Scope® was found to be most effective against common oral bacteria, while Listerine® was found to have little effect. The minimum inhibitory concentration test implied a positive correlation between the concentration of green tea and bacterial growth. Tests indicated that Scope® had a considerable effect against bacterial growth, green tea had minimal effect, and water had no effect; however, these results were inconclusive due to small sample size. As confirmed by the study, green tea does have antibacterial properties, but further investigations are required to make a definitive conclusion.

  • Although Matcha Tea Has Been Around for Centuries, It Has Recently Become a Mainstream Favorite in Both Food and Beverage
    Although matcha Tea has been around for centuries, it has recently become a mainstream favorite in both food and beverage. Historically used in Japanese ceremonies, matcha tea is made using pure luxury sencha green tea and Gyokuro leaves that have been shaded under special shade covers for 3 weeks before plucking. Shading forces the plants to produce higher than normal chlorophyll levels, giving the leaves a rich green color. Once plucked, the leaves are steamed and dried. Next, they are stripped of all stems and veins, resulting in a pure leaf that is stone-ground into the fine powder tea lovers are familiar with. Matcha tea has numerous health benefits. When you drink matcha tea, you ingest the entire leaf and receive 100% of the nutrients of the leaf. This powered green tea has 137 times more antioxidants than regularly brewed green tea. This means you would have to drink 10 cups of regularly brewed green tea to get the same nutritional content as 1 cup of matcha tea. Antioxidants are the body's defense agents. They are chemical compounds that prevent aging and chronic diseases. The more antioxidants you have, the better equipped your body is to fight against infections and disease. Other health benefits of matcha tea include: Lowers cholesterol and blood sugar Boosts metabolism and burns calories Rich in fiber, chlorophyll, and vitamins Provides vitamin C, selenium, chromium, zinc, and magnesium Calms the mind and relaxes the body Enhances mood and aids in concentration Matcha tea has about 30 milligrams of caffeine per teaspoon of powder. Coffee has about 150 milligrams per 8 ounces, depending on how it's brewed.

  • Recipes: Going Beyond Savoury Dishes with Garlic | 3 Hours Ago
    Recipes: Going beyond savoury dishes with garlic | 3 hours ago Fermented Tea Garlic Salad has a unique combination of flavours that will have you looking at garlic and tea in a different way, says certified tea sommelier Carol Mark. She plans to serve the salad at the Toronto Garlic Festival on Sept. 18, 2016. THE CANADIAN PRESS/HO-Carol Mark, Empower T/Toronto Garlic Festival, *MANDATORY CREDIT* TORONTO — For a burst of flavour and seasoning, nothing beats garlic, a fundamental ingredient in many savoury dishes. But creative cooks are finding other uses for the "stinking rose," which is now in season. People might be surprised to bite into ice cream, chocolate, jams and jellies and detect garlic. Carol Mark, a certified tea sommelier and cookbook author, recently created a sweet treat combining raspberries and white chocolate ganache surrounded by a pool of darker chocolate. The secret ingredient was garlic. "It actually heightened the flavour of the raspberry, which is a really nice complement with the darker chocolate. It made it kind of a different sweetness on the tongue," she says. Mark grew up in Toronto's downtown Chinatown where fresh garlic was common in food. "My mother used to grow watercress in the backyard right in downtown Toronto. We would use whatever was fresh and garlic was one of those ingredients." She's grown her own in containers on her condo's terrace. "I love garlic so much and was tired of getting bad garlic in the supermarket that was old, that was dry, and it doesn't add anything to a dish." Mark, a former nurse, became intrigued by the use of garlic and tea as a healing agent when she was recovering from cancer.
