More Information
Tradition and the senses
Tee is more than just a drink. It is a cultural treasure, an industry, an agricultural product, and a gateway to inner reflection. In this book, the authors delve into the world of Japanese tee to explore how tea shapes the zeitgeist, and how the zeitgeist shapes tea. Evocative photographs paint a multi-layered portrait of Japan, using tea as a guide while telling much more than just stories about tea.
The recipes in the book bridge the gap between Japanese cuisine, Japanese sensory experiences, and European ingredients. Shaped by Japanese influences, they give rise to something new and unique: an invitation to get creative and add another dimension of enjoyment to tea.
