Products Hand-Picked By Animals - Monkey Picked Tea (VIDEO)
Monkey Picked Tea

If you’re into the idea of drinking tea that has been hand(?) (paw?) picked by monkeys from rare wild Chinese tea trees, and are willing to pay $25 for 57g (about 2oz) for the experience, well here you go.

Could Monkey Picked Tea be the beginning of a hand-picked-by-animals trend? Will armies of Chinese monkeys start picking all kinds of produce? Is this how Planet of the Apes started?

The wind blows the blossoms in the garden. The monk breathes in. The air is crisp; the world is good. The only thing missing is some tea. Alas, the tea tree branches are too high and the mountain face is too steep. He stops in thought. His monkey, however, knowing his master wants tea, climbs the mountain face, picks the leaves, and brings them to the monk. And the tea was so delicious, other people began training their monkeys to pick it. So the legend goes. (uncrate)
