Tea drinking traditions in Britain

1. History of Tea in Europe

The traditional Chinese drink has conquered the entire world and become an important part not only of the food of nations, but also their culture.

Tea only appeared in England in the middle of the 17th century (the Portuguese had already been drinking tea for over a century by then). It was England that was destined to become the tastemaker in tea fashion for several centuries, and the guardian of tea traditions.

Interesting, the three major “tea” centres outside the East, England, Russia and  Central Asia, were all introduced to tea at roughly at the same time

The word "tea" comes in the English and Russian languages, as well as (так же как) in other ones, from the Chinese, but from different dialects/’daielekts/. In northern China it was called “chai’, while the Dutch merchant (голландские купцы) who brought it to England adopted the southern version of “tay” or “tea”.

At first, it was common for tea to be used for medicinal purposes and most tea was sold then by chemists. But soon it became obvious that the main advantageous of tea lay in the area of social relations.

As a result of the marriage between King Charles II of England and the Portugal princess Catherine of Braganza (in 1662), England gained the habit of drinking tea every day. It was in the 18th century that tea finally became the national drink throughout England.

2. Tea Drinking in England in the 18th-19th Centuries

The first tea served in public places was sold in coffee houses. In 1683 there were about 2,000 coffee houses in London. At the end of the 18-th century, they gained the reputation of being dirty, lower class places and were being replaced by tea shops. Coffee houses reappeared in England in the second half of the 20-th century. The so-called “tea gardens“ started appearing at the beginning of the 18th century and  gained an even greater popularity. They were public places to which the whole family could go. Tea gardens also hold concerts, musical events and literary evenings. They gradually closed in the 19th century.

Despite the fact that this drink was expensive, it was drunk everywhere. The length (18-24 months) and difficulty of transporting tea to England the large tax set on it by the government and caused high price of it. Smugglers brought up to half of the tea drunk. Great success was enjoyed by the producers of so-called “false” green tea that was made from plants grown in England. In 1784 the government passed a special act lowering the tax on tea to 12%. This stopped tea smuggling and false tea production.

3.Tea Revolution

A sort of tea revolution, occurred in the 19th century with regard to questions about the production and sale of tea.

In 1823 a wild tea bush was discovered in the India. Having studied the secrets of Chinese tea production and having smuggled some tea growing specialists the English started cultivating their own tea in India and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). From now on, tea became a drink for the masses in England that dictated the fashion for this drink round the world.

In 1840s fast sailing ships, clippers were launched. A clipper needed no more than 4 months to cover the distance from China to England. The famous races between the clippers went down in the history books. The clipper “Cutty Sark” found peace in Greenwich where she was turned into a museum where it is possible to see the various stages of tea trade. The opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 put an end to the clipper transport of tea.

4. British Tea-Drinking Traditions Today

By tradition, the British national drink is tea. Britain has become the tastemaker in tea fashion and the guardian of tea traditions.

Tea is drunk not only on its own but with or after meals, from breakfast to supper and from early in the morning to late at night. In some poor families high tea was often the main evening meal. From the outset the English liked their tea sweet and added milk, sugar or honey to it.

The variety of dishes eaten with tea is impressive: scones usually topped with strawberry jam, cakes, sandwiches.

Over the last few years, tea shops and tea rooms have been appearing across Britain with unbelievable speed. There are yearly publications listing the 100 best tea rooms.  The magnificent London hotels now serve afternoon tea. This is a whole outing. In some places you must order a table in advance and dress formally. Most of people who come there are tourists or the English in order to celebrate some special occasion.

In recent time coffee has become much more popular and for many people has replaced tea. In 2011 the British drank as much coffee as tea. In countries with hot climate such as United Arab Emirates drink much more tea than in the UK. But the English retain their feelings towards this drink. It is still very popular.

5. Effect of Tea on the Human Body

As we know now, tea has a lot of useful features that help to preserve the health and longevity. There is a modern scientific study of useful features of the drink.  For example, the tea contains vitamins B1, B2, C, and minerals. Tea plant is one of the few sources of fluorine, this mineral has positive effect on dental health.

Tea is a source of powerful antioxidants. Consumption of antioxidants plays a significant role in the prevention of a number of dangerous diseases, the main of which is cancer.

It is known that it contains tannins, caffeine, various minerals. Caffeine and tannins containing in tea, tone up and have a bracing effect on humans, increase work capacity.

Tea has a lot of useful features that help to preserve the health and longevity.  There is a modern scientific study of useful features of the drink.  For example, the tea contains vitamins B1, B2, C. In addition to vitamins, tea leaf is rich in minerals. You can find manganese, potassium, fluorine, phosphorus, and some other substances there that have a definite effect on human health. Tea plant is one of the few sources of fluorine, this mineral has positive effect on dental health, reducing the chance of tooth decay. Now dentists recommend tea as a preventive tool.

But it has some negative effects. Strong tea can cause insomnia, stomach irritation, teeth discolourations.
