In-Home Tea Party

December 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Now this was a new tea idea to me but makes sense with all the in-home parties to sell all kinds of things like baskets, Tupperware, and supplements. This was an article from the Vancouver Sun discussing tea and tea parties.

The subject of the article is David Pidhirney who conducts these in-home tea parties. He owns the Totalitea store in Calgary. He only charges $5 a person but brings along several teas in hopes that the guests will buy a few of those. It is a two hour party where he tells the participants about tea history, the growing of the plants and the characteristics of different teas.

In the article, it mentions that he served a Pu-Erh, an Oolong, a rooibus, a Yerba Mate, a matcha, and a flowering jasmine among others. He also gives some information about the tea grades and what to look for in a tea. Maybe this idea can help someone else develop their own tea party system.
