Celebrate the season with a cozy afternoon of teas, treats, and togetherness hosted by DONA, a woman-owned tea company based in Brooklyn. Held at Index, this gathering is perfect for tea lovers and anyone looking to mark the holidays with warmth and flavor.
We’ll begin with an introduction to Dona’s story—its roots, sourcing practices, and commitment to working directly with small-scale farmers. Then, enjoy a guided tea tasting led by Navdeep Kaur, Dona’s Head of R&D and Education, who will offer insights on how to savor each blend and appreciate its complexity.
Following the tasting, experience Dona’s teas through a selection of tea-infused pastries created by a lineup of local bakers:
Emily Drucker, Erica Esper, Madison Scott, Sam Fuchs, & Sydney Roberts.
Each recipe highlights the versatility and balance of Dona’s blends, bringing their unique flavors to life in festive ways for the holidays.
