http://www.socalsocietea.com; a great website; very colourful. I looked into attending the Japanese Tea Ceremony while on Kauai this past week, but there was a surprising lack of this event, while on Oahu, the ceremony is extremely popular. Oahu has a high amount of Japanese immigration. Unfortunately, I was not on Oahu. I saw the tea plant in one of its native locations on Kauai. There were two tea plants. There is one plant with a big leaf, the ti plant, and then there is the Tea Leaf Tree, from where the beverage comes.
