Although I've extensively studied coffee consumption statistics and also found many reliable sources that anoint coffee as the world's 2nd most popular drink (behind water), there are indeed some claims that tea deserves that position.

Any plans for a tea-themed book for this non-coffee drinker?

It's perfect for coffee nuts like me, or anyone related to a coffee fan. (I'll buy a bunch as stocking stuffers!) I am especially fond of the Merrellesque coffee bean "beings" on the Bean Maze pages. Relatives of Ashen and Noir, perhaps? Congratulations to Pat and Helene who have produced the first REAL coffee table book. I have this book and I love it.
