Moonlight Tower Tea
Tea Embassy Celebrates Moonlight Towers & National Historic Listing with Tea
Tuesday, May 6, 1:00 pm
Tea Embassy 900 Rio Grande Street
complimentary parking off 9th
Come Celebrate Austin’s Moonlight Towers on their official birthday May 6 at the Tea Embassy. We’ll be serving a new tea named after the historic Moon Towers, which provided the entire city with artificial light for the first time in 1895.
Just like the Moon Towers, the Tea Embassy’s Miller House has just been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. When Mrs. Miller remodeled this historic home in 1898, the Moonlight Towers were lighting up her neighborhood.
Bette Baker will be speaking on the history of the Moonlight Towers as we celebrate.
Tea Embassy’s Moonlight Tower Tea is a black Chinese tea from Yunnan, fragrant with sweet notes, not too strong—-like the “Moonlight Tower” to enlighten your mind and inspire you to create.
Come visit the historic Tea Embassy, enjoy a taste of tea, and shop for Mother’s Day!
