50 Tea Recipes from the Duchess

Description

Duchess Chloé Battenberg is a spineless softy at the mercy of society snobs, disparaging servants, and a cold husband. When an office worker (and recovering pushover) awakens as Chloé, she can’t believe it. But she’s DONE with this pity party, so let's make it a tea party! Each cup is perfectly brewed to defeat prejudices and coffee-predilections—and served with a side of business savvy—but is it enough to stir her husband and bring Chloé the respect she deserves? Come spill the tea with Chloé!

Great tea manual, not so great story

by MorganaReads
3 years ago

Rating: 5.0 / 10.0

Originally dropped, but picking it up again to learn more about tea while ignoring everything else happening. While the interactions between the FL and soldiers is cute, the FL overall is blah, the ML is bland, romance is unnecessary.

As usual, the ML grew up under a violent and abusive father , which isn't any hot tea, but an overused cliche. There isn't anything super interesting or tea-rific about the FL.

It is rather frustrating seeing the ML suddenly seek justice for the FL because to me it was too little too late since it was the original owner of the body who suffered the most. He picked a powerless, inexperienced, awkwardly quiet wife on purpose. But then he just disregards her completely for being that way and left her to be physically and emotionally abused by the staff he had hired to that are supposed to take care of her, never bothering to raise a finger to stop it. And he finally stepped in because his wife was suddenly useful and interesting? Being timid and scared after a lifetime of being bullied doesn't make any person less deserving of respect. The original FL should have been held responsible for blaming an innocent maid, but other than that she deserved so much more from him as a husband, even if he had was emotionally stunted. For mere appearance sake, he should have hired better servants for her.

Also, the FL isn't my fave. She has little personality besides tea, her tea business, and blushing anytime Alf does something semi romantic.

Also, one of her business plans involved making a winter themed product. The food she chose was one that the poor, homeless, and starving relied on to make it through the winter. She was literally inspired by seeing homeless men roasting sweet potatoes over a garbage fire because they couldn't afford other food. And yet she takes the yam, makes it a trend among the noble, causing there to be shortages of yam and the price to sky rocket, all so that she can sell a seasonal product.
I guess you could say this story not my cup of tea. She is literally making the poor starve to death in winter so that her business can have a seasonal item.

Confusing story's Goal

by IAmLilith_09

Rating: N/A

The art is okay and the story is, also, okay at first. But as you've read and analyze every detail, it is like the story doesn't have a specific goal to achieve. At first, I questioned, why would she be transported? What's her purpose and why in that kind of scenarion etc etc. But none. It is just like a diary or maybe a bit common since its a drawing so it's really uncommon to have a diary using drawings.

Every story and events has it's own purpose. The past provides why and what you are doing today and will in the future but this is kinda lost it's path and, as a reader for a long time, it becomes an old version(to put it in a polite way) of an adventure and anticipation of what will happened next. It just a simple... And... Boring typical story of a isekai that I've read so... far (?)... But it's good at first.. 😅

Drink tea, solves all your problems

by Kryspy_Kreme

The story is fine and the characters are fine. The development it wishes to complicate the characters with, wasn't realistic,

and are we really just going to skip the pains of childhood trauma with the power of love and tea? Fiinnnee lol. It's really a no-brainer story. If you want to just read something entertaining enough after a long, tiring day, but you still want a bit of drama to work your three brain cells with, I recommend lol.

Review

Solid read, awesome story. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an easy and cute manga with beautiful clothes and art. It was educational about tea and the romance is cute if shallow. The way it handles and resolves isekai is original and respectful, I found it very refreshing and empathetic. The servants are handled really well in this story and the author fleshed out the household and business operations really well.
But there are some issues:
The MC has no flaws and the antagonists are resolved too easily. Unfortunately, tea cannot solve sexism, cultural prejudice and class division. The historical aspect of corsetry as portrayed in the manga is incorrect, as most women did not participate in tight lacing, but that is the case with a lot of fiction. I have issues with how magic was introduced and used. Overall, characters are flat and one dimensional.
8/10 for the first half, 6/10 for the 2nd half.

It's simple, light-hearted, and wholesome

The story is pretty simple and straightforward, with some dramas here and there to spice things up a bit. Just don't expect overarching plot and mind-blowing twists.

So I'm posting this after reading the ending of the main story ch 128. In all, this is a cute story. The main couple is cute, the villains are delt with swiftly and the art is relatively easy on the eye.

It gets a meh for me since as others have noted, it solves everything with tea. Even Brits would agree that the tea obsession is a bit much. That said it doesn't go off the rails with the fl being too op and having a ridiculous amount of knowledge on everything (though her advance knowledge of tea processing is a lil sus) like say Iris with a Smartphone. She likes tea and she's nice.

The late to mid developments regarding how she was isekaid were handled great and I love that it gave an actual conclusion on that.

In all a good completed Isekai series to read if you are bored and looking for fluff. This got me, a soda drinking American, to get into tea and I feel better for it. And that's the tea sis.

Learn about tea but hmm

by MusicalHiro
4 years ago

Rating: 7.0 / 10.0

Started reading this in 2020 but I haven't read this for a few month since I caught up (as I had other better things to read and anime/drama to watch).
I love tea, any kind and I admit its quite interesting to learn that many tea have specific brewing process to get the best flavour, and I don't mind the art, its clean and quite nice for this manwha.
In terms of story and characters, I thought it started quite good, strong FL... at first who tries to make the original person a better and stronger person with TEA. But as other reviewers noticed, the plot gets weak with clichés, no real strong characters. And because the Duke and Duchess are billionaires, they can easily open shops and buy sooooo many ingredients/tea easily... just gets too boring. Another thing is the Duke kinda pisses me off. Like give the FL some space, no need to keep forcing a kiss out of nowhere every time and kinda embarrass her in public, geeze.

Anyway, if you like tea and want to learn? - Have a read
Want a good plot and strong characters? - Avoid

It's TEA-ring me apart.

by TribesX

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

I like tea, and it's really nice to have a story introducing it like that.
That's the best part.

Everything else is... "meh".

It's the usual "mix and mash" western culture seen by an eastern person. It's ok, I got used to it, I don't sigh as much as before.
One detail that keep bugging me in stories like this is that modern cravate is from early 1900, so no, in 1765, it didn't exist.
No, guards din't go everywhere in armor (don't even talk about authenticism about it) ; no, servants didn't look like maids from a maid cafe ; etc.
(While I'm talking about guards, if the Duke and Duchess go in town, they would have at least a few guards with them.)

Another thing bugging me is the typical asian reaction to a kiss, like "Oh no, not in front of everybody". -_-'

And lots of anachronisms : tea-party (when they don't drink tea), vitamin (and no one care about it), etc.

At first, it was nice to see her building her reputation and fighting againt bullying, but the "eveything can be done with tea" is a bit... toot much ?
And, everything else is skipped :

Need a tea store ? Here it is !

Need tea from the other side of the globe ? Here it is !

Need to dismantle a drug network ? Here it is !
I know that "tea" and "romance" are the main themes, but skipping everything else like "ok, it's done" seems too lazy.
