First published in 1985, The Chinese Art of Tea is an exploration
into the history of tea and the Chinese art of tea, known as
ch’a-shu. The book begins by delving into the history and legends
surrounding tea before moving on to a study of the Emperor Hui
Tsung’s treatise on tea and approaches to tea during the Ming
Dynasty. It discusses tea gardens, teahouses, the relationship
between tea and ceramics, and the connection between tea and
health. The book also features a detailed manual for practising the
art of drinking tea, including advice for choosing tea, buying tea,
different types of infusion and drinking vessels, and the attitude
required for obtaining the fullest satisfaction from tea. The
Chinese Art of Tea is ideal for anyone with an interest in the
history and art of drinking tea, and the social and cultural
history of China.
