Tea Sommelier

Tea, much like wine, can be a refined pleasure for the palate, with a remarkably broad spectrum of scents and tastes. This generously illustrated guide takes a sommelier's approach to tea, showing readers how to taste it, prepare it, and serve it.

Fifty grand cru teas are examined closely, including several of the most famous varieties on the market. Along the way, readers gain a deeper understanding of the many qualities that shape what ends up in their cup.

The book also offers a selection of recipes found only within its pages, along with guidance on matching tea with different foods. It is intended for anyone who appreciates this long-standing beverage.
