Unless you’re a tea fanatic, you’ve probably never thought about the drink in [this] much detail, but that’s the beauty of this film: it lets us into other people’s passions and opens our eyes to the wonders we might never have seen otherwise.

08/18/2012 Tea is good mmkay. I want this type of tea now. It looks tasty. See more 06/07/2011 One Of My Favorite Documentary's! See more 04/11/2011 I'd like to try some of that $20k/pound prize winning tea. David Lee's easy going personality make this easy to watch. See more 01/24/2011 I want this man's job. I'm re-energized on tea. See more 01/10/2011 This documentary lacks any kind of narrative for much of its short runtime; with some subjects that would be okay but I'm not sure I understand that decision with tea. It feels almost as if Blank and co went and filmed lots of stuff and then later thought "how do we turn this into a movie?" But it's still intersting and I learned something. See more 06/17/2010 An amazing tale of Tea and a man who knows it best! See more Read all reviews
