Infused: Adventures in Tea

Care. I admit to being a tea snob, so reading Henrietta Lovell’s book titled, Infused: Adventures in Tea, was right up my alley. I nodded at all the ways in which she’s passionate about good tea, and the care with which we should treat the finest tea leaves to capture the depth of flavor. As I’m writing this sentence, my bride has just arrived with a pot of Makaibari Estate Darjeeling, II Flush FTGFOP-1. It’s brewed perfectly, tastes marvelous and has a light golden color that captures my eye. Whether you’re a tea snob or not, if you like to taste delicious things, consider reading this book and expanding your tea consumption into some of the examples she describes along with her stories about the places and people who take care to bring us fine tea. When you’re ready to select tea to suit your palate, consider ordering from great tea merchants, my friends Bill and Janet Todd, at http://www.todd-holland.com/. Next, I’m thinking about brewing a nice China oolong from the mountains. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase Infused from amazon.com.
