P.S. The peculiarity of such briquettes is that, first of all, they have a pronounced taste, but not aroma. In China, they became known in the X-XI centuries. And we mastered its production in the 30-40s, and in the 50-60s it was even exported to Mongolia, Laos, Vietnam. In the past, brick tea served for a long time among the peoples of Mongolia, Tibet and Xinjiang as a measure for evaluating other things and even as a kind of monetary unit.
The massive consumption of tea, which in Russia by the beginning of the 19th century had become practically a national tradition, naturally led to the idea of producing tea leaves directly on the territory of the Russian Empire. Such attempts were made in the 19th - early 20th centuries several times, although systematic work on the creation of domestic tea began only during the Soviet era. The first attempts to grow tea in Russia were made in the 1830s (at the same time when the British created their tea production in the colonies, in particular in India). At first, the Orthodox Church tried to plant tea, later some wealthy landowners were engaged in this. There are known experiments on tea breeding undertaken by the Georgian princes Eristavi. A pioneer in the scientific cultivation of tea on the plantations of the Batumi Botanical Garden was the Russian scientist Andrei Krasnov back in the 1910s.
By the end of the 1970s, 95 thousand tons of ready-made tea were produced in Georgia per year. Georgian tea was exported to Poland, East Germany, Hungary, Romania, Finland, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, South Yemen, Mongolia. Black long tea, green leaf, tiled, and brick tea were produced in Georgia. Black tea was consumed by the European republics of the USSR and European countries, green tea - by Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, the countries of Central Asia. A technology for the production of yellow tea was developed, but it did not go into mass production, since none of the enterprises took up its development.
