About Peter Barker
Peter Barker

So how did an engineer from Canada, managing an automotive systems and components plant with worldwide technological responsibility working in Poland, where kielbasa is king, get hooked on tea? The exact same way!

Arriving at work in Poland one day, a magnificent aroma aroused my senses. I had to know what it was! Sitting at her desk, our time keeper was enjoying a cup of tea. As I approached, I noticed rose petals and green tea leaves floating on the surface. She made me a cup and soon after her and two coworkers took me to a tea shop slightly bigger than a breadbox in Bialsko Biala. And although the proprietor didn’t speak English and I didn’t speak Polish, through a series of finger pointing; grunts; facial expressions and other gyrations…over time, I was able to try as many different teas as she was able to brew. The effects that her various teas had on me were indescribable. I was smitten! I was determined to make the switch from automotive engineer to tea connoisseur and procurer. See the connection? Neither do I!

Peter Barker, (Tea Connoisseur & Procurer)
