teance tea tasting salon

what's lisa pouring for us tonight?on wednesday evenings at 6pm there is a free tea tasting at teance on 4th street in berkeley. it has become a salon of sorts with a few people sharing their creative musings each week....we all started as strangers in this little tea bar and now as we gather in a circle week after week, savoring the subtle nuances of the ancient tea leaves and the vitality of each other's company, it has grown into a lively, openhearted community.yuri giving a matcha (japanese tea) making demonstrationever tried dipping a baguette into your matcha tea?! this little one was showing us what it's all about!after dipping, guzzle!ben singing his catchy tea song hit "barley...the poor man's tea!" part of what we hope will soon be released as the teance tea song collection!and another hit - laurelin sharing her fabulously brilliant oolong song! "if you're lookin' for a way to get high, give camellia sinensis a try...."encore, encore!
