About this listen
Back with a splash! We delve into the science and history of tea, doing our best to answer the important questions: What is it? Where does it come from? Why does it taste like that? How racist is it, really?
Mentioned in the episode: Porto Rico Importing Co. and at 210 Bleeker St. in Manhattan if you're ever in the neighborhood. Well worth a visit!
