first draft in my hands 😭🍃

my new book, leaf by leaf: a journey through tea, tradition, and the legends behind the leaves, is HERE (well, at least the first draft copy is)! publishing next month, it’s a tea guide that covers everything:

from tea tasting around the world, to tea history and legendary figures like lu yu and myoan eisai, to ceremonies like chado and gong fu cha. it even delves into tea wedding rituals, microbiology, and the ethics of modern tea farming 🌱

grown from years learning tea from the inside out, this book is for beginners, intermediates, and lifelong students alike, revealing itself as your understanding deepens 😌

coming soon in paperback, hardback, and ebook ☕✨

wandering around taoyuan, taiwan, i stumbled across this beautiful tearoom 💖

it’s built around a covered wooden corridor, a form used in traditional chinese garden architecture to connect spaces while framing views of water. the dark wood holds warmth and softens sound, while the carved lattice allows air to circulate in taiwan’s humidity. this makes a real difference when you’re paying attention to aroma and how it opens 😌

beneath the walkway, koi swim through the pond, flashes of orange and gold visible even in the dark. in tea culture, water is the foundation - its steady movement mirrors the pace of good brewing and gently holds your focus 🍵

a single red lantern hangs overhead, the light warm and low, sharpening awareness of texture, temperature, and how a tea changes across infusions 🫖

altogether, this is a tearoom designed for slow tea, where nothing can pull your attention away. the space supports patience, repetition, and small shifts from one infusion to the next ✨

if you haven’t guessed by now, alishan is one of my absolute favourite places to drink tea, and honestly one of the best ways to find good tea is by trusting random tea people 😌

on this farm, chen uses the three classic cultivars of alishan tea. there’s qingxin, which is soft, floral, and sweet; jinxuan, which is creamy and gentle; and then there’s cuiyu, with a greener, brighter lift.

same mist, same altitude, same hands. absolutely gorgeous tea 🍵

tasting two grades of jin jun mei side by side really shows how much leaf quality matters 🍂

the top jin jun mei shows fewer golden hairs and more broken, darker material. that usually means fewer spring buds and more mature leaf or harder firing. in the cup, this results in a flatter sweetness, heavier cocoa notes, and a quicker slide into dryness or bitterness if oversteeped (which i did 😭).

the bottom jin jun mei though: *chef’s kiss* 😘 you can see the difference immediately, with whole, slender buds covered in fine golden down (called ‘hao’), a sign of early spring harvest and careful processing.

these hairs are not just cosmetic - they are where a lot of jin jun mei’s signature honeyed sweetness comes from. brewed gently, this one gives layered notes of honey, soft malt, dried fruit, and a lingering sweetness that returns after each sip. so freaking good!

same tea name. same region. completely different experience 😌

this is why jin jun mei is less about darkness or strength and more about clarity, sweetness, and finesse, and why short steeps and good leaf really matter.

about me: 😌

hi all! if you have been following for a while, you probably already know that i, amy aed (aka @wandering_everywhere ), run eisa tea co., a small wales-based business which aims to change the whole tea industry (a big dream, i know) 👩🏻‍🌾

i started this business as i began to notice that the majority of teas in the uk were either picked by farmers receiving horrible treatment and horrifically low wages, or grown with pesticides and chemicals, and served in teabags made of plastic (yes, even those “plastic-free” teas… i can talk for hours about those!).

currently, i am on a tea sourcing and studying trip in taiwan, where i am able to live with tea farmers and study mandarin to better my communication, and i spend almost all of my time in tearooms learning about the leaves from masters, pickers, enjoyers, and everyone in between 🍵

i write this from one of my favourite local tearooms in taoyuan, where i take almost everyone that visits me here. as another fun fact, i have spent a surprising amount of my time in taiwan rescuing animals both big and small - and this tearoom has seen me bring in all!

i just wanted to share a few shots of this tea room which now holds such a special place in my heart. if you have read all of this, tell me something below about your own tea journey! 💖

finding little gems like this: small homes where locals share tea and memories from their pasts 🥰

visiting kenting, taiwan, i didn’t know what to expect from the tea scene. but then i stumbled into this humble home, where the owners quietly served gankou oolong and translated stories about their lives working on the fields 💖
