International Issue No. 4 of t –The Magazine for Tea Culture

This issue contains translated articles from German editions, as well as articles produced exclusively in English.

In this issue, we invite you on a journey through the captivating world of tea – from the forest gardens of Thailand to a farm in South Korea, from a modern sailing ship crossing the oceans to matcha bars in Brussels, and from teahouses on the Isle of Wight to teahouses in the windswept corners of Southern Patagonia.

Once again, the sheer breadth of the tea universe becomes clear. Yet when we speak of “diversity” in our cover stories, we mean more than the myriad flavours and traditions. We mean the astonishing richness of life that surrounds the tea gardens: plants, fungi and creatures of every size – from the smallest snail to the wandering elephant. In particular, we shine a light on two pioneering projects that seek to cultivate tea as close to nature as possible: Monsoon Tea, with its forest gardens in Northern Thailand, and Wild Orchard, with its regenerative farming approach on the island of Jeju, South Korea.
