Our celebration of Jane Austen's 250th birthday continues with this Tea Tasting presentation by Margaret Gay, owner of 27 Teas in Manchester, NH. 

Few traditions are as quintessentially British as the daily ritual of tea. Whether it's a formal afternoon tea, a quick tea break at work, or a casual chat over a steaming brew, tea holds a special place in British culture. Whether you are an experienced tea drinker or think you don't like tea, a tasting experience will help you understand the wide range of flavors available to you in the world of tea!

Margaret Gay is the founder of 27Teas, a New Hampshire–based artisan tea company, started in 2018. She says, "I was the girl who was tired of walking into cafés and finding endless coffee options but only one dusty box of tea. I began blending my own, determined to give tea lovers the same variety, quality, and excitement that coffee drinkers enjoy. What started as a passion project quickly grew into one of New England’s top tea brands, known for both premium blends and interactive tea experiences. Today, 27Teas combines high-quality ingredients with creativity, community, and a mission to make tea culture feel easy, fun, inclusive, and vibrant!"
