Роберт Форчун был шотландским садовником, ботаником, охотником за растениями и промышленным шпионом. В 1848 году Ост-Индская компания поручила ему совершить тайную поездку во внутренние районы Китая — территорию, запрещенную для иностранцев, — чтобы украсть тщательно охраняемые секреты чая • На протяжении веков Китай был единственным в мире производителем чая. Великобритания закупила этот товар для своей империи, продав опиум китайцам – ядовитые отношения, ради поддержания которых Британия вела две разрушительные войны. Ост-Индская компания принесла щедрую прибыль как посредник, но она изжила свое, потеряв монополию на торговлю чаем.
