 Tea is an evergreen plant, cultivated extensively around the world, born in China. The Tea bush (Camellia sinensis) is a cousin of the horticultural camellia (Camellia Japonica), three subspecies are known: Camellia Sinensis (China); Camellia Assamica (India) and Camellia Camodiense, the most common of the three is Camellia Sinensis and Camellia Assamica.
The tea tree can reach a height of 1 to 2.5 m (maximum height 30 m).  This plant is cultivated for its foliage  (the bud and the two leaves). It is rare to see tea bushes with their white flower on the plantations as the repeated harvesting of buds and young leaves inhibits the flower growth. The tea tree grows well in warm and humid climate. Temperature, rainfall, shadow, light, quality of the soil, altitude and gradient, influence the quality of tea.
The harvesting is done manually or mechanized; the manual method by hand can guarantee the high-quality teas (PREMIUM), chased by top world consumers. From the harvesting to the cup, the tea leaves go through the following processes: withering, rolling, riddling, oxidation, firing, and sorting.

Tea for me represents so many things, memories, dreams and nostalgia, the perfect tea setting, long hours drinking tea in extravagant ambiences, still life on a canvas, luminosity, art, hospitality and comfort of ordinary daily life,  tranquility under the tree shadow of a suburban garden, the subtle realism of melancholy in a rainy day, silence atmosphere of apathy, women, an their private ritual of daily life and intimacy.
