Chinese Tea
Ceremony at Library
Jesse Berry from Blue Lantern Tea will demonstrate a traditional
Chinese Tea Ceremony at the Library on Thursday November 6th at 6:30
p.m. Many patrons enjoyed this program last winter and will want
to savor another cup - and those who have never attended are in for a
treat of tea and its interesting background.
Jesse will talk about the history and culture of tea as well as the
many health benefits. The ceremony consists of the preparation
and serving of tea - everyone will taste a sample! Jesse first
discovered artisan quality tea through his Kung Fu practice. Gung
Fu Tea is part of the Kung Fu culture and he was attracted to its
benefits and philosophy.
Blue Lantern is located at 120 West Third Street and is owned and
operated by Jesse & wife Kim, along with the Young Forest Martial
Arts Academy which is behind the tea shop. Jesse is a master or Sifu
and teaches Kung Fu and Tai Chi/Chi Gung. He also edits an online
publication Tea Warrior. Info at www.bluelantern.com,
www.teawarrior.com, and www.youngforestmartialarts.com.
Blue Lantern carries a wide variety of teas from around the world such
as Chinese and Taiwanese Green Tea, Oolong Tea, Black Tea, White
Tea, Puer Tea, Japanese Green Tea and English Classics from India. Teas
of this quality are hard to find. It also sells tea ware, jewelry,
soaps, and more. Come and get a “taste” of what this beautiful
shop has to offer at our second tea ceremony!
