A rare kind of green tea was auctioned off in Korea, and sold at a surprising price of W1.3 million (US$13,000). That means a cup of this green tea would cost more than $100.
The tea, made of leaves from the oldest tea tree in the country, has a rather strong scent and a sweet aftertaste, without the usual bitterness that most other green teas have.
Given the value of the green tea, the starting price for the auction was set at $10,000, and four people made a bid. |
