Tea carries the imprint of land, climate, and human touch. Across China and Việt Nam, generations of farmers and makers have shaped leaves through tradition, adaptation, and care.
Tea Across Borders is an invitation to slow down and taste these connections. Through a guided, side-by-side tasting, we’ll explore how geography, biodiversity, and craft give rise to distinct expressions of tea - while reflecting on the shared threads that bind them.
This is more than a tasting. It is a conversation across cultures, landscapes, and lived experience - held in a single cup.
A curated set of four loose leaf teas
– 2 Chinese teas from Volition Tea
– 2 Vietnamese teas from Anna Ye Tea
A 2-hour live virtual tasting hosted on Zoom on Sunday, April 19, 2026 1-3pm CST
A recording of the session, available if you’re unable to attend live

A side-by-side tasting of traditional tea processing methods still practiced today
How terroir - geography, climate, and biodiversity - shapes flavor

Reflections on land stewardship and the future of tea
Tea as a cultural practice - where land, people, and history are inseparable
