CHINA TEA
+-AND-t
Tea Trade!
Extract from Consular Report
of the u. S. Consul Bed
loe at Amo. China.
BEWARE OF GREEN TEA.

1T is an abominatIon and a fraud. In
the first place it is the unripe leaf, and
bears the same relation to the real ar
ticle, that the green does to the ripe
peach. The green tea of commerce de-
rives its rare color from being cured or
rather killed, in dirty copper pans, from
being mixed with roots and shrubs,
from being stained with indigo, and
chrome yellow from being colored with
yerdigris, grass juice or chlorophyl
Every green dye known to commerce
has been used to produce that much adj
mired, but death dealing color. except
pehaps Paris green. As soon as the
use of that poisonous substance will
give profit of cent pound, no
doubt it will be literally used by the NOR
cenary Monaghan merchants, and the
much more mercenry cultured European
tea trade"
