Champagne of Teas: An Evening with Kevin Gascoyne
Even though Tea is the most consumed beverage after water, it’s not the same in North America (Specially in Canada & USA). But due to emerging health and wellness trend, tea is gaining in popularity specially among younger generation. With this background Tea and Herbal Association of Canada (https://www.tea.ca/) has organized an even called “Champagne of Teas, an Evening with Kevin Gascoyne”
It’s going to be a screening of Kevin Gascoyne’s documentary “Champagne of Teas” and a tea tasting of spring teas from Sri Lanka (Ceylon) and India. As Eventbrite (https://www.eventbrite.ca/) had posted Kevin Gascoyne has been traveling to the Himalayas as a tea-taster and buyer for over 25 years. The CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) sent a documentary film crew to follow him on his annual quest for the select lots that represent the finest that the gardens of Darjeeling have to offer.
