     Unlike China and Japan, which are well known for their teas, Korea has yet to be discovered on a global scale, but produces what are arguably the best teas in the world. The most famous tea (cha) in Korea is probably nok-cha, or green tea. It's considered extremely healthy and has been linked to a variety of health benefits. If you like sweet teas try, mae-shil cha or ggool tae-chu cha. Check out omi-ja cha and you-ja cha for something a little more tart.
