This evening, we're having a Tea Tasting Event at our Tea Room. This one's for beginners and will include a sampling of basic teas. Today's samplings are:

BLACK TEA
China Keemun and Oaklands Estate, Assam
GREEN TEA
Temple of Heaven Gunpowder and Makaibari Estate, Darjeeling Green
OOLONG/JASMINE
Wu Yi Oolong and Spring Jasmine
NON CAFFEINATED
Rooibos Afrikana and Toasted Almond fruit tisane

We expect 14 - 20 people and we sample teas, in pairs, one category at a time. We talk about the dry leaf, the infused leaf, the taste and any specific characteristics and notes associated with the teas. We provide a brief explanation of how tea is manufactured, where it comes from and most importantly, how to store it, how to steep it and how to enjoy it everyday. Stay tuned. I will bring you comments after the Tasting!

Fun Events

As the year unfolds, we keep pace with the calendar and match our festivities to the occasion. We offer our special St. Valentine's tea on February 14, we celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a 'Green' menu and Irish specialties. Irish Breakfast is on prominent display during March. Our biggest day of the year is, of course, our Mother's Day Special Afternoon Tea service. We love that day and evidently, our patrons do too. Before the official holiday season comes our Anniversary in November. We partner with our local Food Pantry to hold a fundraiser at about the same time.

Catering, Tea Tastings and Parties

Because we are a small Tea house, private parties always pose a dilemma. If we close the restaurant, we inconvenience our regular patrons; if we don't offer our Tea Room for parties, we disappoint those who want to celebrate at our establishment. We've tried to find a middle path by offering Saturdays from 4 to 6 pm during the summer as our party slot.

Catering orders, however, are no problem and have increased ten-fold in the past several years. We offer garnished, plated trays of our great food and all you have to do is invite your guests. We provide sandwiches, sweets, desserts, salads and even tea. Please consult our Catering Menu for details and we're always glad to customize a selection for you.

Bringing the Party to You

We are always happy to come to you. We can offer a simple Tea Lecture or a full-blown Tea Tasting with Refreshments. We've gone to libraries, corporate establishments, educational institutions and even home parties. It's a fun way to get together with people and spread the word about Tea, the most popular beverage in the world, second only to water. Contact us for rates at events@silvertipstea.com.
