As I have enjoyed drinking tea since childhood, I have enjoyed reading and referencing this magazine for years (I have a library of this magazine from the 11th issue through the current). It covers everything you want to know about the tea experience. Hence, you will learn the history of tea, regions where it is grown, etiquette, tea salons, etc. When it comes to tea, you can travel the world vicariously via this magazine. Very nice artwork throughout, central directory for taking Afternoon Tea, marketplace, and it cites many tea or tea related websites. My only disappointment is that I did not know about this magazine from the Premiere issue!

I love tea. I love drinking it, learning about it, making it. Thus, subscribing to a tea magazine seemed like a no-brainer. Tea Magazine covers all aspects of the tea industry- preparation, growing, tea travel, books about tea. You name it. This is not a professional trade magazine (for those in the tea-buying business), it's meant for the lay consumer, and could be enjoyed by those who have a great deal of background knowledge of tea, or those who are trying to learn more. Perhaps most striking is that this is a visually stunning magazine. It's full of gorgeous pictures, very glossy, high-color, thick paper. It feels and looks good to read (with a good cup of tea, of course). My one complaint is that I wish there were a few more articles in each issue. But overall, I am very pleased to have a subscription and will continue it.
