Green Tea - Diana Rosen

Introduction

I began my life in tea as most North Americans do, thinking of real tea as that golden red-brown liquid into which one pours a dollop of milk and a spoonful or more of sugar. As my circle of tea acquaintances grew, I was introduced to tea plain, and my appreciation grew to embrace the briskness of a Ceylon, the dark sweetness of a Yunnan black, the complexity of a genuine single-estate Darjeeling.

With great fortune, my first experiences with green tea were ideal, for I was introduced by an avid and experienced Chinese teaman who served me in his own authentic Chinese teahouse. Tea was offered in a covered cup, curved slightly inward to fit even the smallest hands and placed atop a matching saucer that kept the hot cup from harming the hands. A domed lid was used as a paddle to push the fresh green leaves back and forth until they gave up their sweetness and provided me with their ambrosial nectar.

I was in love. I quickly and enthusiastically embraced the Chinese styles of preparation, acquiring the accoutrements one by one until my tea cabinet was full of their beauty.

The more I drank green tea, the more appreciative I was. The more varieties I experienced, the more astonished I became that this innocent leaf could be dried, steamed, or lightly pan-fired, and shaped in countless ways, always with the same result — pure pleasure.

If you are really fortunate, you may stumble into a teahouse where traditional storytellers spin their centuries-old tales, which are sometimes more intoxicating than wine!

For the Japanese, green tea is an everyday pleasure drunk with morning rice (or even poured over it), served with other meals and to visitors, and, on important occasions, served much more elegantly at the formal tea ceremony called chanoyu. This way of tea never ceases to transport me, to offer a long-lasting spiritual vacation, to take me to a place of calm and serene attitude that derives solely from watching the ballet of chanoyu, in which the simplicity of water and leaf is elevated to pure
