some tea links
You can taste and feel, but not describe, the exquisite state of repose
produced by tea, that precious drink, which drives away the five causes of
sorrow.
--Emperor Ch'ien Lung
"I hope next time when we meet, we won't be fighting each other. Instead we
will be drinking tea together."
-- Jackie Chan to they bad guys in ``Rumble in the Bronx''
The naming of teas is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your everyday games-
Some might think you as mad as a hatter
Should you tell them each goes by several names.
For starters each tea in this world must belong
To the families Black or Green or Oolong;
Then look more closely at these family trees-
Some include Indians along with Chinese.
T.S. Eliot
