  • Very general in content

    The book focused on tea history, generalities and garden layout.. I expected to read about the details of growing different tea varieties. I thought I would learn each plants needs and difficulties while growing them. I almost regret buying the book. However, I found the processes for harvesting and processing various tea types helpful.

  • Cool Tea Book, I love it.

    I haven’t had time to read too much of it yes, but I love this book! I really like the size, it’s more comfortable to hold than the larger paperbacks. Very good condition and shipping time. Thank you so much.
