Puerh expert Glen Bowers of Crimson Lotus Tea will prepare two types of puerh in the traditional Chinese gongfu style. While you sample puerh, you’ll learn about the differences between sheng (raw) puerh and shou (cooked) puerh.

Although puerh is a new experience for most American tea drinkers, it is a complex tea with a very long history. Spend an hour tasting multiple steepings of the two styles and chatting with Glen about his recent trip to Yunnan, China. Join the tasting starting at 1 pm or 2:30 pm.

The cost is $20/person. To reserve your spot, select one of the class times on Saturday, Oct. 12, and click Book Now. Once you check out and pay, you'll receive an email confirmation.

Glen will also have puerh, yixing teapots and other items available to purchase.
