The Tale of Tea with the wonderful George van Driem
Oh what another tea treat. In this episode I have the pleasure to talk with Prof George van Driem about his wonderful book The Tale of Tea. We chat about camellia sinensis the plant and where it originated, about excavations of 1000 year old tea leaves, pesticides, climate change, earl grey tea and much much more. His book has 900 pages of dense and layered tea knowledge and is a pleasure to read. I love how it feels like many tiny jigsaw pieces coming together :) Thank you George for sharing your work with us.
