\"\"What is the Japanese Tea Instructor certification system?<\/h2>\n

The Nihon Koki, a Japanese historical record, indicates that in the year 815A.D., the priest Eichu presented the Emperor with Tea, showing that Japanese Tea has been consumed in Japan for over 1000 years. Today, Tea continues to be consumed widely as Japan’s ‘national drink’. Furthermore, from the context of dietary culture, Japanese Tea contributed greatly to Japanese culture and it’s development of the Tea Ceremony.
\nRecently, many foreign and domestic researchers have shown that compounds present in Japanese Tea hold many health benefits. This lends credence to the long history of Tea drinking, and has helped to promote widespread public interest in Japanese Tea.
\nIn the process of working toward the diffusion of knowledge regarding the cultural\/healthful aspects of Japanese Tea, as well as promoting the development of Japanese Tea culture, the Central Japanese Tea Grower’s Consortium established in the year 2000 the Japanese Tea Instructor certification as a connection point between consumers and Japanese Tea.<\/p>\n
