Liquid Jade: The Story of Tea from East to West (book review)

I finished university with a double major in History and Spanish. I pretty much never speak Spanish these days — as multi-cultural as Melbourne is, Spanish-speaking folk aren’t that common — and most of my days are spent working on things like newsletters, content management and spam killing for a certain travel community. Despite the fact that my day job really doesn’t have much to do with what I studied at university, history remains a passionate interest of mine.
And so I was very interested to read Liquid Jade: The Story of Tea from East to West, an engaging introduction to the tumultuous and intriguing history of tea.
