Visit America's Only Tea Plantation
Today I came across a story on CNN about how the only tea plantation in America is now allowing visitors to come and see how tea gets processed and turned from raw leaves into a finished product. This doesn't have much to do with technology but I am a big fan of tea so I'm writing about it anyway.
I was surprised to learn that there is only one tea plantation in the US and it was at risk of being closed. This is the country of the Boston Tea Party, after all. It is only a matter of time until tea becomes as popular as coffee and people will learn the differences between good tea and lipton. Once, most people thought that Sanka was what coffee really tasted like. Starbucks taught us different and a similar tea house chain may soon come along and do what Starbucks did for coffee, but for tea.
