Have you ever made yourself a cup of tea and thought, People over a thousand years ago drank this same beverage, and went through substantially the same motions in the process of brewing it, and enjoyed it with the same sense of contentment?

Isn’t that an amazing thought?  That in those few moments you’re one with a heritage dating back perhaps as much as four millennia?

No wonder tea has become a ritual in almost every culture that drinks it.
