"In Japan, people come together for a tea ceremony, in England for tea time, in the Arab world a glass of tea is a sign of hospitality, in China no day starts without tea and in East Frisia a chat without tea is simply unthinkable," says Kyra Schaper, Press Officer of the German Tea & Herbal Tea Association, explaining how tea unites our world in a unique way.

Tea is lived and loved diversity

Whether as a valuable raw material, a natural foodstuff or a versatile luxury food, tea has a high status that is constantly growing in importance. As a commodity, it brings people together, secures livelihoods and jobs and contributes to sustainable development. "Even if we don't realize it with every cup, tea is always the result of close cooperation and the great commitment of many people from different countries, who together create connecting moments for us," says Kyra Schaper.
