Pyongyang, May 28 (KCNA) -- Tea culture is encouraged among citizens of the DPRK.
Teahouses and restaurants across the country have served Kangryong green tea, Kangryong black tea and other teas made of insam, shizandra, Acanthopanax sessilliflorum, semen cassiae, etc.
Drinking tea at home and worksite became a daily life of many citizens.
From olden times, tea has been regarded as "the elixir of life" and "drink of divine being".

I have drunk tea for ten years, and this led my blood pressure to normal. Tea also helps digestion.
