THE STORY OF TEA
Lotus
Collection
By E. Jaiwant Paul
Today tea is consumed by about one-half of the world's
population. Legend has it that tea originated in China
about 5,000 years ago. The earliest reference to tea
which scholars give credence to was found in 350 BC
in the Era Ya, an ancient Chinese dictionary. The
Story of Tea traces the history, myths and rituals
of growing and drinking tea from the tea gardens of
China to the roadside dhabas of India.This book deals
not only with the planting and manufacture of tea,
but its tasting and blending, its sale by auction
and marketing in branded packaged form, with a special
reference to Brooke Bond India, and more ... The Story
of Tea makes for interesting reading.
