Your Cups of Tea — Sunday, January 18th

This is a ticket for Sunday, January 18th. From 1 to 3pm.

Join us for an afternoon with Brad Hall, exploring traditional, hand-crafted, terroir-specific teas from China.

We’ll sip through the main categories (green, white, oolong, black, and beyond) which offer a glimpse into tea’s long history and a template for understanding the styles that have since spread across the world. We’ll talk about how one plant can express so much, depending on where it’s grown, how it’s processed, and who’s doing the work. It’s remarkably similar to wine: a vivid snapshot of a specific place and time.

This is for anyone interested in the connection between plant and place, or just looking for a thoughtful, alcohol-free way to nerd out on flavour. We’ll keep it casual and intimate, touching on how to brew, how to taste, and how to find the teas that feel right for you.

Note on caffeine: All teas are made from camellia sinensis, so they contain a moderate amount of caffeine. We’ll serve small 25ml cups, so total caffeine won’t exceed a typical mug of tea. If you’re sensitive, we recommend eating beforehand. Otherwise, just come thirsty and curious.

Spots are extremly limited. Event tickets are not reimbursable.
