It is a timeless tradition that has been handed down through the generations like a priceless heritage. Treasured with perfection, the Chinese Tea Ceremony which is the pinnacle of all Chinese weddings has a deep meaning embedded within it. Not only is this ceremony a moment of filial piety, but its significance lies within the precious leaves that are brewed to make a drink which is the elixir of health and beauty.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, tea has cooling properties although it has both sweet and bitter flavours.
