Sorry to say this but........ unfortunately that NPR piece is not up to their normal standards. It is awful and full of misinformation or poorly understood information. Susan must have spent all of 10 minutes preparing for it. They must have thought of it as a "fluff piece".

Nice that tea got some coverage........ bad that it was so poorly done.

best,
