​In their own words:
“In rural Turkey, tea is a way of life. In a series of vignettes, three women tea farmers let us into their kitchens, their fields, and even their choir group to share the integral role tea plays in their lives. They offer their firsthand wisdom on sustainable tea production - after all, it has been part of their families for generations.”

Highlight: Turkish friends singing about tea and supporting a cause. It really doesn’t get much better than that.

​In their own words:
“Tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water –– and from sugary Turkish Rize tea to salty Tibetan butter tea, there are almost as many ways of preparing the beverage as there are cultures on the globe. Where did this beverage originate, and how did it become so popular? Shunan Teng details tea's long history.”

Highlight: Tea used to be consumed as a food! It became a drink approximately 1500 years ago.

​In their own words:
“In (Zagat’s) Staples series, we show you the stories behind the ingredients you probably take for granted. In this video, we visit Wadmalaw Island, South Carolina for an inside look at America's only tea plantation.”

Highlight: All tea stems from three types of tea (green tea, black tea, and oolong tea), but they all come from the same plant!
