The US has Wonder Tea, and Japan has Matcha – a dried, green tea that has a velvety texture. It’s used in traditional ceremonies, and that’s been the case since for hundreds of years. Don’t be going there thinking that this is like the green tea you have at home, though, as it’s not!
This green tea is brewed with boiling water and a bamboo whisk and is drunk without being strained, so it has a taste that takes a little getting used to.
Japan is certainly big on tradition, so you’ll find these ‘Way of The Tea’ ceremonies right the way across the country, but if you head over to Kagoshima, and Sengan-en in particular, you’ll get to enjoy your tea against the tranquil yet ominous backdrop of an active volcano. Yikes!
This is something of a hub for tea trading, as it’s one of the most prominent tea exporters in the world. Here you’ll find its signature Ceylon black tea – that’s named after the country’s former name – as well as famous types like Earl Grey. This is quite a diminutive country, but it still boasts countless blends, with their high-altitude growing practices creating a fresh and light taste.
If you’re looking for a place to enjoy Sri Lanka’s answer to Wonder Tea, Ella in the South of the country is a good place to go. The place offers some wonderful scenery, along with the famed Uva Haplewatte tea factory that offers tours and rather a long train ride through picturesque countryside to get there.
