History rarely gets more tasteful—or worldly—than this! Sip our delightful collection of loose-leaf teas while devouring the story of how one of the world's favorite beverages came to be such. In the deeply researched, informative, and fascinating The True History of Tea, readers will journey across the globe from the jungles of Southeast Asia to the Boston Harbor. As you read, embark on a tea tasting tour with our Tea Library: ten vials of loose-leaf, single-estate teas from Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, China, India, Kenya, and Korea (each of which brews a six- to eight-cup pot). An included informational book guides you on your tasting journey. What a singular experience and memorable gift for bibliophilic history buffs who are seldom without a hot cuppa! (HC)
