Book Description
Tee erfreut sich seit vielen hundert Jahren großer Beliebtheit. Die Anfänge der ausgeprägten Teekultur finden sich in China, wo zum ersten Mal Pflanzenblätter zu dem aromatischen Getränk gebraut wurde. Auf dem Seeweg kam der Tee aber recht bald nach Europa, wo er sich zunächst als eine Art Arznei bewähren musste, bevor er vor allem in englischen Adelskreisen zum Genussmittel avancierte. Das vorliegende Buch beschreibt sowohl die Geschichte des Tees als auch typische regionale Zubereitungsarten, und geht überdies auf seine kulturellen Bedeutungen ein. Es handelt sich hierbei um eine englischsprachige Ausgabe.
