Book Title： Roots of Tea by CHAGEE issue#1 The Language of Tea

ISBN:9789887154020

出品：霸王茶姬

Published by CHAGEE
 
This issue, Roots of Tea, begins with a return to the foundations that continue to give tea its meaning.
 
As CHAGEE expands across borders, this issue reflects a broader ambition: not only to bring tea to more places, but also to broaden how it is understood. The aim is to make tea more familiar, more relevant, and more present in everyday life for people in more countries — positioning it not as a relic of tradition, but as something living, adaptable, and contemporary. In that sense, tea becomes more than a drink. It becomes a bridge between heritage and modern life.
 
The publication of this issue on May 21, International Tea Day, is therefore deliberate. More than a symbolic date, it is a reminder of tea’s wider significance: as livelihood, as agriculture, as cultural memory, and as a form of connection sustained through daily practice.
 
The title Roots of Tea also reflects the journey behind this issue. Through reporting across multiple countries and tea-growing regions, this magazine traces the distinct local foundations of tea culture — different landscapes, traditions, and ways of living with tea. What emerges is a portrait of tea as something deeply rooted in place, yet capable of crossing borders and entering new forms of daily life.
 
In that sense, Roots of Tea speaks not only to origin, but to direction: international in reach, contemporary in expression, and grounded in the depth from which tea first emerged.

本期《茶之根》，始于重新探寻那些赋予茶恒久意义的本源。
 
伴随霸王茶姬迈向更广阔的国际市场，本期杂志承载着我们更深层的愿景：不仅要把茶带到更多地方，更要拓宽人们对茶的理解与认知。我们希望让茶变得更贴近大众、融入日常，走进更多国家人们的生活——让茶不再只是封存于过往的传统符号，而是鲜活灵动、随时代生长、与当下相融的生活方式。在此意义上，茶早已不止是一杯饮品，更成为连接文化底蕴与现代生活的桥梁。
 
本刊特别选在5月21日“国际茶日”正式发行，这份安排自有深意。这不仅是一个具有象征意义的日子，更时刻提醒着茶所承载的多元价值：它是赖以维生的产业、是农耕文明的智慧、是代代相传的文化记忆，更是一种在日常点滴中持续维系情感与联结的生活方式。
 
刊名《茶之根》，也映照了本期杂志的创作历程。我们走访多国茶区、深入产地，探寻茶文化在不同土地上独有的根基——各异的山川地貌、人文传统，以及各地人们与茶相伴相生的生活日常。最终呈现在你眼前的茶，既深深扎根于一方水土，又拥有跨越地域、融入现代生活的鲜活生命力。
 
《茶之根》，回望本源，更奔赴前路：扎根东方茶脉的深厚底蕴，以当代语言诠释表达，走向更广阔的世界舞台。
