This book was underwhelming for me. These little pocket/coffee table type books should really be attractive so you want to read and browse through them. I thought the pictures and illustrations of this book were ok but nothing fantastic. It is a cute little book, but I didn't really learn anything new from it.

I am glad to have read and received this little book. It has me ready to try different teas and to begin to use the correct preparation method. It included just a bit more information about teas that was necessary for me. Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . This short primer on tea is focused on the beverage (really the plant and its leaves). Although there are a few recipes for tea-based cocktails, the book does not discuss tea, the meal/social occasion at all. It's a good overview of the different kinds of tea and the various preparations of the leaves. The author does slip in a plug for his tea business from time to time, which is a touch annoying. The ARC is almost entirely in black & white (4 sample pages are in color), but the book is full of photographs and drawings, which will be beautiful in the final copy.Ressenya escrita per a Crítics Matiners de LibraryThing . I like my nonfiction books to be either a) comprehensive or b) deep dives into a subject. Unfortunately -- and I should've been warned by the title -- "A Little Tea Book" is neither of these, zipping from one chapter of snippets to another. I could've dealt with that if the book had more charml sadly, Beckwith's "personal" musings seem limited to the times he went to some far-off enclave to track down rare, uber-expensive teas. (Self-promotional much?) As a freebie this is fine, but I don't recommend shelling out $20 for this guide when there are surely better ones out there. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
From tea guru Sebastian Beckwith andNew York Times bestsellers Caroline Paul and Wendy MacNaughton comes the essential guide to exploring and enjoying the vast world of tea. Tea, the most popular beverage in the world after water, has brought nations to war, defined cultures, bankrupted coffers, and toppled kings.

From orange pekoe to pu-erh, tea expert Sebastian Beckwith provides surprising tips, fun facts, and flavorful recipes to launch dabblers and connoisseurs alike on a journey of taste and appreciation. Along with writer and fellow tea-enthusiast Caroline Paul, Beckwith walks us through the cultural and political history of the elixir that has touched every corner of the world. Featuring featuring charming, colorful charts, graphs, and illustrations by bestselling illustrator Wendy MacNaughton and Beckwith's sumptuous photographs, A Little Tea Book is a friendly, handsome, and illuminating primer with a dash of sass and sophistication.
