Paperback. Etat : New. Afternoon tea conjures up both feelings of elegance and gentility.

This has created an unprecedented demand for learning the essentials of tea etiquette as executives meet in hotel lounges to discuss business over a cup of tea.This book includes tea history, tea and health information, steeping guides, as well as elements of both social and business tea etiquette.
