Here is what most interests me in tea…
As a tea educator and journalist, I believe that tea and tea culture reduce distance between people. In my tea course at Temple University, through our law school tea club, and in my articles on global tea culture, I have seen how tea disarms, unites, and creates friendships that transcend boundaries. In my research, I regularly encounter themes of physical and mental wellness, exploration and discovery, cultural sharing, and local wisdom that heals and inspires.
My comments on the most critical threats/opportunities facing the tea industry globally.
