Historical Teas - A Tasting Flight through World History
Join me for a tea tasting journey around the world as we explore the exciting origins of tea as we know it today! Our journey will begin with the world's oldest known tea in China and stories of how it traveled on the ancient tea horse road. Our journey will continue to the shores of Europe when tea first arrived by ship in the 17th century only to be followed by the riveting tale of British spies heading to China to discover its mysterious secrets. The adventure will continue on American soils with stories of how tea was woven into the very historical fabric of the America's independence. Finally, we will touch upon how tea influenced the culture of British High Society. You'll conclude our adventure amazed by how much of our world history has been influenced by tea and how much it continues to influence our evolving culture today.
Thank you to Miro Tea for donating some of the teas used in this workshop.
