Default Tea-V

I just got done watching a TV program on PBS that I have a TiVO
subscription to, "Land of the Dragon"
http://www.d3mediagroup.com/lod_program_content.html which is about
various facets of chinese culture(s), and the most recently shown
episode had a bit about the Tea Horse Caravan and cultural exchange,
mostly through how Shaxi village serves as a good example of this.

There have been several other episodes of this program that highlight
tea, including one on tea culture, gongfu tea, and teapot making. I
thought I'd share. It's worth a TiVo if you're interested in China,
particularly in its arts & ethnic minority cultures.

Any other good TV programs on tea out there?
