A fun, educational talk highlighting the history and many health benefits of tea and dark chocolate (cacao) with insights from presenter Kim Larkin's chocolatier background! Kim will discuss how to brew a proper cuppa, how tea varieties differ, and the tenets of Cha/Tea Ceremonies. Come and enjoy a sampling of English teas, chocolate, Downton Abbey trivia, and a Downton display!

She is a licensed commercial chocolatier and a NAHA (National Association of Holistic Aromatherapy) certified aromatherapist.
