There, he found a single tea shoot. He planted it and it grew into a tea bush with exceptional quality tea leaves, then he gave cuttings to his neighbors.

I started bnyiug Chinese Oolong Tea after reading that it increases the metabolism by 10% which is much higher than the green tea I had been drinking. I've read green tea only increases the metab by 4%. I'd have to drink almost 5 cups of green tea to get the benefits of drinking only 2 cups of Oolong. Green tea has been my good buddy since 1998 when my sister introduced me to it, but I have to say goodbye. Oolong tastes better than green tea as well.
