Résumé

Chai. The word evokes memories of rainy afternoons, road trips, and long conversations. No gathering in India is complete without a few cups of hot, steaming tea. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, 'Some people will tell you that there's a great deal of poetry and fine sentiment in a chest of tea'. This book truly encapsulates this feeling, while never departing from its main purpose of being a useful and erudite manual for novice and seasoned tea planters with detailed instructions about tea manufacture, right from which seeds to select to newly evolving sustainable practices.
The book details the advantages and disadvantages of different processes and methods for raising tea plants successfully. It is written in a clear and lucid manner and covers a wide range of practices related to the manufacture of tea. The author is an experienced tea planter with decades of experience, which allows him to offer practical and easy-to-follow advice about improving the quality of the crop through appropriate scientific techniques.
The author also takes into consideration the changing demands of tea production as a result of climate change, bringing togetherboth traditional and moderns methods for adapting to the needs of the current market. This book is an indispensable guide for anyone who wishes to improve the quality of their crop and produce superior tea.
