We Love Tea
Turkey’s love of tea is strong! We admires this drink :)
Tea is a part of a cold winter day,a hot summer day, a visit to relatives or friends. It is a way to relax and a typical Turkish breakfast starts with a nice glass of tea. It can be served with some fresh pastries and cookies. It’s drunk by everybody. We cannot think of a day without tea.
Traditional Turkish tea is black. Ottoman Sultan Abdülhamid II loved tea, but Sultan Mehmed V was addicted to it. The tea seeds were brought from Japan in 1878 and they were planted in Bursa; but the Black Sea region was more suitable to grow this plant, the first tea seeds were planted in Batum in 1918. A law regarding tea was introduced in 1924 and the seeds were planted in Rize. The first tea factory was established in the same city in 1947 .
There are some important steps to prepare and enjoy a good tea.
First of all tea must be poured in a small and transparent glass and it should be hot to burn the lip a little bit.
