Re: London tea gatherings and other
thomas.vankeulen sounds like a good plan. If you come to Los Angeles please let us know, pre-covid the Los Angeles Tea Society would get together every few months in Santa Monica and surrounding cities in the greater LA area. With this new variant we unfortunately had to cancel an upcoming tasting,...

Re: Tetsubin
