Chinese Monkey Picked Tea
Legend says that over ten centuries ago, upon seeing his master pick tea leaves, a monkey climbed up and collected the leaves and brought them down for his master.
Whether it be legend or simply a cheaper form of labor, the story has turned into a rare product that you can purchase and enjoy.
Monkey Picked Tea is a rare tea that is carefully picked by specially trained monkeys in a remote mountain region of China.
True or not true, that is for you to ponder.
I just heard that the monkeys have formed a union and are now on strike pending better wages, health plan, and pension.
