>korean tea rebranded in japanese sold in europe
Hmmm did a think

> Although the tea made of leaves from the tea plant is not as popular as coffee in South Korea (annual consumption 0.16 kg (0.35 lb) per capita, compared to 3.9 kg (8.6 lb) coffee)

Korea confirmed white

It's worse. They are making a mix out of marmalade and calling it tea.

That looks very tasty desu

At least it's full of vitamin c

...

hi, kimmy

may be because of food
generally korean eat hot or spicy food
that not matched to tea

Did Koreans always eat spicy food? I would think a lot of the spices are relatively recent introductions.

main dishes are not always
but side dishes are almost spicy to take away the aftertaste

Iced corn tea is good for taking away the heat . They seem to have it at every korean restaurant for free

The thing is, red pepper is native to the New World and almost certainly wasn't a part of Korean cuisine until fairly recently.

and pic related is all round tea
you can use this as jam and make ice cream
also healthy it is good to drink when you are getting a cold

in fact korean tea culture is getting decline in recent days
it is known as 茶禮(다례)

Szechuan pepper existed before the introduction of red peppers. Other things like cloves and horseradish were also refined to be spicy

implying that neither China nor Japan had drunk poo wine

variation
but these are not tea

It's just the entire Korean peninsula is too high up in the latitudes and too cold to grow quality tea leaves, meanwhile China, Taiwan and Japan all have plenty of ideal places for tea farming with a warmer climate and high mountains.

I think this is true. The only place that I know of that produces tea in quantity is Jeju island, which is semi tropical and warmest in korea

this
抹茶 and 茶道 is most based Japs culture not anime sucked by weeb shit

and also very southern provinces

POO WINE IS A MEME. STOP SPREADING FALSHOODS
