TBM 1708.16 – DDOP-16: The Way of Tea

Hector & Inez of Karuna Tea

Description:

Tea is so much more than dried leaves and boiling water.

Excerpt:

I’m struck by the way the wet green tea leaves look as though they’re the result of a fortune-teller’s reading, and I wonder what their message might be. We are all surprised when Hector tells us that the brew time for this tea is less than a minute, and even more so when he tells us that white, yellow, and green tea leaves can be re-used two or three times, if treated gently!
