“The act of making the tea is inseparable from the leaves themselves. True tea is about the ritual. It’s a ritual that exemplifies slowness, gratitude and attention: you let the water boil, you let the leaves steep, you put everything else on hold and sit down with friends for a fresh cup and conversation. Tea time is lo-fi time.”
