Reminder that the only reason why tea is grown outside of China is that a Brit once disguised himself as a Chinese nobleman to smuggle out some plants.

They found a tea plant that was native to India when they were looking for alternatives, they just couldn't figure out how to process it correctly until industrial methods were developed for it ~50 years later. Once they had it the Indian tea overtook Chinese tea but the Chinese were already addicted to opium so it was too late.

You actually could grow tea in England, especially somewhere like Cornwall. It's just that it didn't make sense to do so economically when they could just ship it from indian gigaplantations.
