And we’re back with yet another brew-tastic podcast!
A few months ago I was approached by Far Leaves Tea of Berkeley, California via Instagram about partnering up for a podcast. Being that it was my first time contacted by a business I was truely excited about how far this podcast had come and didn't hesitate to accept the request. I then hurriedly left my apartment to buy a sticker and give myself a pat on the back. A milestone had been reached! Achievement Unlocked!
The amicable Peter Christy and his wife run the blossoming business having started it only several years prior. And if Peter’s charisma is evident of his character it is no question that Berkeley has a true gem of a business within it. Opening themselves up to group events and tastings the Far Leaves team use their open and breath easy atmosphere to educate the masses on how to enjoy a brew. Check it out for yourself on their Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!
During the podcast we dive right into Peter’s humble beginnings and Asian travels, seeing where his inspiration first took root. This leads us into some great discussion and insight surrounding the range of customers Peter sees walk through his door. We later bridge into puer, business altruism, gong fu, and bit of buddhism. It’s a loaded podcast this week folks so bring your teapots close and your cups even closer.
LEEET’S BREW IT!!!
