This is a very pretty little book, with some solid basic tea info and pictures. It is also so extremely and constantly clearly written by an English person who is real nostalgic for imperialism. It is very funny how immediately it becomes clear that any time the phrase "the public" is used, it exclusively refers to the middle- and upper-class English public. It is also genuinely kind of horrifying. So like. Can I recommend it? Not sure. Will I probably keep it to use as a quick reference text now and again? Yeah, I suspect so. ( )

Lille sød bog og ikke ret meget indhold. Noget af det er så kort formuleret at det nærmest er forkert, fx beretningen om briternes start af tedyrkning i Indien.
Bogen er del af en serie: Køkkenets Lille Bibliotek, der også tæller "Kryddergrønt - i salatskålen", "Søde sager - til madlavning" og "Krydderier - fra tørrede rødder og frugter". Hele serien er formentligt lige undværlig. ( )

This book is adorable and informative. It's the perfect companion to any tea lover, and would make a wonderful gift. You'll find a brief history of tea, descriptions of various types, and even some recipes. ( )
