Description

Around the world, tea is drunk more than any other liquid, apart from water. For many it is a refreshing thirst-quencher, while others associate its preparation with elaborate rituals. Whether tea is drunk “straight,” with milk or lemon, sweetened or unsweetened is a matter of taste and culture. Originally taken in China as a medicine, tea eventually conquered the world and has now become a part of our everyday lives. This book provides a host of interesting and useful facts about what is probably the oldest cultivated plant in the world, including: a complete history of tea; interesting facts about cultivation, picking, and processing; from refreshing drink to tea ceremony; and an introduction to the “language of tea.” Full-color illustrations. Beautifully designed!
