We recently lived in Beijing, China, where we “accidentally” fell in love with tea. It all started for us former coffee drinkers when we happened upon a local wholesale tea market one day. In the process of bartering for a beautiful gold dragon embossed tea set, we were invited to sit and taste several of the teas the shop had to offer. For more than two hours, the potential language and cultural barrier was washed away by the pure enjoyment of the tea and tea rituals, and we left the shop with our very first bag of loose leaf tea in hand.
