STORY: A legend told in the villages of Taiwan's Alishan National Scenic Area maintains that the Tsou Tribe of aborigines, people who inhabited the mountainous region centuries ago, first discovered wild tea in Taiwan by chance. (The name Alishan itself derives from an old aboriginal word - Jarissang.) The story goes that the Tsou discovered that leaves from a certain bush (now known to be tea) produced an elixir when boiled that had the ability to raise spirits and keep the mind alert.
