The world of tea is vast and adventurous. However, I grew up with
Lipton tea, and it wasn't until college that I tasted my first flavored
black tea. Little did I know that was only the beginning! Erika
Dillman takes the mystery out of white, green and black tea,
plus everything in between! She gives us a clear, concise history
of tea, and simple, but thorough explanations of the different types, grades,
and much more. Her writing style is friendly and enthusiastic,
so you don't feel bogged down in the information. It's also a
nice reference to keep around when exploring new teas and
placing orders.
The Little Book of Healthy Teas also teaches us how to
brew, store and serve tea (different types can take different
brew times). The author also reviews many of the medicinal
uses for tea in a logical, and sensible way that allows us to
review the properties of different teas and herbs, along with
the precautions that are so important.
Erika Dillman's book was a pleasant surprise, and a
great find. She's helped me to become an informed
adventurer in the world of tea!
