When you hear the name ‘tea’, it seems as if there is peace in a smoky warm cup. Whether it’s after waking up in the morning, or in the office, or in a lazy chat with friends. Then if it is green, then sohaga in gold which maintains both health and contentment. That is why it is said that the first kiss plays electricity on the body, the rest is a storm. In the language of the poet,
In the winter town, soft caress,
Feelings are living.
On the grass in the morning,
Sighs rather than smokes.
