STEEPED IN CULTURE

Season 7 Episode 704 | 26m 46s

Taiwan is steeped in tea, as beverage, ritual and way of life. Danielle meets a tea grower who processes the most tender leaves by wok-frying them, and shares sips with an expert in the ceremony of brewing and drinking tea. A San Diego surfer displays the delicate tea pots he makes to honor his adopted culture, while the baristas at Odd One Out dispense gourmet bubble tea.
