An Evening With James Norwood Pratt

We are so excited and thrilled to announce that on October 22nd at 6:30 p.m. we are hosting an evening tea tasting with James Norwood Pratt. He is the author of one of my favorite tea books, New Tea Lover’s Treasury. For those of you not familiar with him, he is one of the world’s leading authorities on tea and tea lore. A native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, he was educated at Chapel Hill and abroad. He has been Honorary Director of the first traditional Chinese teahouse in America, instrumental in creating the American Premium Tea Institute and editor-in-chief of Tea Trade – the Magazine of the World Tea Business.

Mr. Pratt’s love for tea is contagious. You can’t help but get caught up in the romance he has with tea. His descriptions and stories are enthralling. I just can’t believe he’s coming here, to our tea room! Because I want everyone who is truly interested in tea to attend, this will be a free event. All I ask is that you make a reservation as seating will be limited and will be on a first come basis. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m.

Come along and fall in love with tea. You won’t be disappointed! Mr. Pratt will be available to sign books after the event.
