At Evergreen Lux, we believe that tea is more than just a beverage—it’s a gateway to tradition, culture, and history. Our brand is built on the values of craftsmanship, heritage, and the art of tea drinking, passed down through generations. As purveyors of premium Turkish tea sets and accessories, we understand the significance of every cup, and the stories that unfold with each brew. Today, we invite you to step into our Tea TARDIS, a journey through time that celebrates tea's enduring legacy.
A Journey Back to Ancient China: The Birth of Tea
Our first stop takes us back nearly 3,000 years to ancient China, around 700 BCE, where tea is said to have first been discovered. Legend credits Emperor Shen Nong, an herbalist and scholar, with this discovery. As the story goes, the emperor was boiling water beneath a wild tea tree when a few leaves fell into his pot, creating the first ever brew of tea. Intrigued by its taste and invigorating properties, Shen Nong realized that this wasn’t just a drink—it was an elixir of wellness, one that would shape the future of civilization.
From Elixir to Culture: Tea in Rituals and Tradition
As we travel through the rich landscapes of ancient China in our Tea TARDIS, we witness how tea evolved from a medicinal remedy to a cultural treasure. It wasn’t just consumed for pleasure—it became a symbol of health, tranquility, and even enlightenment. Monks adopted tea to aid in meditation, appreciating how it sharpened their focus and calmed their spirits. Tea became part of spiritual rituals, marking it as a revered product that connected people with nature and inner peace.
Evergreen Lux: Honoring Tea’s Legacy Through Craftsmanship
At Evergreen Lux, we pay homage to this tradition by ensuring that our tea sets, carefully crafted with precision and attention to detail, reflect the same reverence and respect for the history of tea. Each piece we offer is designed to enhance the experience of tea drinking, allowing you to savor the moment, just as ancient tea drinkers did. Our premium Turkish tea sets carry this spirit of connection, blending heritage with luxury.
Tea as an Art Form: The Japanese Tea Ceremony
As the Tea TARDIS moves forward in time, we observe the spread of tea across Asia. It crosses borders, reaching Japan, where tea transforms into an art form. Here, the tea ceremony emerges as a reflection of harmony, respect, and elegance. Every movement in the preparation of tea—from the pouring of water to the gentle whisking—becomes a choreographed experience, a meditation on beauty and balance.
Elevating the Ritual: The Evergreen Lux Experience
These values align with the ethos of Evergreen Lux. We understand that tea is not just about flavor but about the entire experience. That’s why we focus on creating elegant tea sets that enhance this ritual, bringing a sense of luxury to every pour. Our pieces are designed for those who appreciate the fusion of tradition and modernity, where craftsmanship meets functionality.
Tea on the Silk Road: A Global Journey
As our Tea TARDIS travels further along tea’s journey, we follow it to the bustling trade routes of the Silk Road, where tea begins its journey into the Middle East and Europe. In Istanbul, tea becomes a central part of the social fabric, served in bustling teahouses with ornate, handcrafted sets. From there, it makes its way to Europe, particularly Britain, where afternoon tea becomes a ritual of refinement and sociability, enjoyed by royalty and aristocrats alike.
Creating Connections: Evergreen Lux’s Commitment to Excellence
By the time tea reaches the global stage, it is no longer just a drink but a symbol of hospitality, warmth, and connection. Evergreen Lux embraces this concept wholeheartedly, curating premium tea sets and accessories that bring people together, whether for an intimate gathering or a sophisticated celebration. Our brand seeks to offer more than just products; we offer a refined tea experience steeped in cultural significance.
Tea’s Story Continues: The Present and Future of Tea Drinking
As we return to the present from our journey in the Tea TARDIS, we recognize that tea’s story is far from over. It continues to evolve, yet it remains a constant presence in people’s lives, connecting them through time and space. At Evergreen Lux, we are committed to carrying this legacy forward by offering exquisite products that honor the rich heritage of tea, while enhancing the tea-drinking rituals of today.
