Mike Harney's lovely new book is the best guide we have seen in English which clearly and concisely explains how "mere mortals" can taste and evaluate tea. He describes 56 teas, ranging from ethereal Ceylon Silver Tips to earthy Pu-Erh, noting how to see, smell, feel, and taste without fear or preconceived "shoulds." We use and recommend this book highly.
