Tealosophy
Why do people attach such significance to the drinking
of what is basically hot water strained through a handful of leaves?
It helps to remember that tea is a ritual,
a way of savoring the moment through atmosphere, food and drink.

Tea tempers the spirit, calms and harmonizes the mind,
arouses thought, prevents drowsiness,
lightens and refreshes the body, and cleanses the perceptive faculties.

We hope you enjoy your Tea Time with us!
