Tea ceremony
Tea ceremony according to the tradition of East Frisia (Germany)

All of Europe drinks coffee... All of it? No! One small region in northern Germany still holds its own: East Frisia, a true bastion of tea.
In this poetic region, tea isn't just a drink: it's a ritual of the heart, shared over a rock sugar (Kluntje), a drop of cream, and a unique etiquette.
With humor, warmth, and erudition, Thommi Baake invites you to discover this little-known tradition through a tea ceremony unlike any other: here, tea is told as much as it is drunk. Anecdotes, stories, historical references... a tender and humorous tribute to Europe's most secretive tea culture.
Sunday, June 15 at 4:30 p.m.
