Tea Party

blogzenvallyopening.jpg

Meditators at the San Francisco Zen Center now have a place to socialize after they sit. A new Samovar Tea Lounge has opened up in San Francisco's Hayes Valley (now affectionately dubbed "Zen Valley") with a full array of artisan teas to satisfy any spiritual practitioner. The YJ Staff Favorite? Ocean of Wisdom, which is a Samovar blend created for the Dalai Lama himself:

If you're not local to the SF Bay Area, you can recreate the post-meditation tea tradition at home by ordering from Samovar's online store.

Samovar is such a great place and Hayes Valley is one of the best newish neighborhoods in the city so this sounds like a terrific combination!

I'm starting a small Yoga clothing business and I'm interested in carrying the t-party collection. I am having a hard time finding the manufacturer. Can anyone please help me.

Thanks
Laurie
