Not all tea is the same. Tea comes in many varieties and is grown in many countries. This class will teach the art of brewing tea in all its forms from black to green to white to herbal. We will discuss the history of tea drinking and sample the various types so participants can gain a greater understanding of the diversity of flavors and how they are created. When you finish you will know a Darjeeling from a Lapsang Souchong and how Earl Grey is made. Material fee of $2.00 is included in the tuition. No discounts or vouchers. Tuition: $25. Class meets 7:00–9:00 PM on Tuesday, October 6, at Vernon Hills High School. Registration is required.
