A boxed set of three mini hardcover books from Running Press, the gift imprint of Hachette in New York. Each book is pocket-sized, covering a different facet of tea — history, ritual, and more than two hundred flavor profiles.

The set reads more like a tasting note collection than a textbook. Short entries, illustrated covers, the kind of book that lives near the kettle and gets picked up between steeps. The mini format is the point — it's a gift you actually open.

For the friend whose pantry shelf is half tins of single-estate tea. The host who'd rather steep loose leaf than pour from a bag. The reader who collects small books for the bedside.

Three hardcover mini books, illustrated. Published by Running Press in the United States.
