Tea Tastings

dscn2609Dear Freinds,  I will be hosting a sacred tea session this wednesday, spet. 17th,  from 7- 9pm. The session will feature 5-6 rare teas that will leave you swooning. Come join me for a tea journey. Tasting will be limited to 7 people. If there is enough demand, I will make a second date this week. Price is 35-50 dollars/person, pay what you wish.
In Portland we just finished building an outdoor tea temple and I have attached a couple of photos. It came out beautifully and thank you to all my friends who helped build it with love and intent. Each building day was begun by a fire puja offering ceremony where prayers, incense, flowers, rice, chocolates, copper coins,tobacco and ceder branches were offered into the fire. In each of the concrete foundation stones I embedded pearls form my alter. You can really feel sacred Presence in the structure. I thik we will have many special times there.
Next month, i will start hosting monthly tea and sake parties at my home. It will be a chance for all of us to get together and share a special time toegther and connect people through a love of tea. My hope is: to build a real community around the sacredness of tea, sharing and love (and getting tea drunk together).I will send out invites and more info in early october.
Also my old email and website were mostly destroyed by a virus and i am just now getting email after three weeks of no computer. This is my new email address (paulrosenberg@sacredtea.com) and i am working to put up a new revised website in the coming weeks.
much love,
