I'm a little Friesian boy and live behind the dike
Our friend Thorn from East Friesland developed the secret recipe for "Easy Friesy" with us: fine organic black teas from Africa and India tell of eventful and modern times. This real "tea story" began with colonization and was always closely linked to the development of trade and the race of sailing fleets for ever shorter routes from Asia and Africa to Europe. Today, in the modern tea culture of samova, we honor this specialty as the most experienced in decelerating. Only a few insiders know that light beer from Hamburg was originally considered the main drink and food in East Frisia until reports of a decline in customs and work declined in the 16th and 17th centuries. Protestant preachers then praised tea as a God-given drink "against the devil" and the aromatic hot drink became popular among the population as a healthy alternative to beer. To date, no people drink more tea than the East Frisians, who - statistically speaking - enjoy around 300 liters per head per year. In December 2016, the German UNESCO Commission included the East Frisian tea ceremony in the nationwide directory of intangible cultural heritage. According to this, tea culture has an identity-creating function, structures everyday life and daily rhythms, creates social cohesion and is a recognition feature for the region.

The history of Easy Friesy
Our friend Thorn from East Frisia developed with us the secret recipe of "Easy Friesy": In it, noble organic black teas from Africa and India tell of eventful and modern times.This real "tea history" began with colonization and has always been closely linked to the development of trade and the race of sailing fleets for ever shorter routes to Europe. Today, in the modern tea culture of samova, we leave the stress outside and honor this specialty as an old master of deceleration.
Few insiders know that light beer from Hamburg was originally the main drink and food in East Frisia, until reports of the decline in morals and work began to be heard in the 16th and 17th centuries.
To this day, no people drink more tea than the East Frisians, who - statistically speaking - enjoy about 300 liters per capita per year*. The German UNESCO Commission included the East Frisian tea ceremony in the Federal Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage in December 2016. According to this, the tea culture has an identity-forming function, structures everyday life and the rhythm of the day, creates social cohesion and is a recognition feature for the region.**

The East Frisian "Teetied
First, a "Kluntje" (rock candy) is placed in the drinking vessel. Then the hot tea is poured over it - the sugar crackles as it does so. Finally comes the "wulkje", the "cream cloud": the cream is carefully placed on the tea with a spoon in an anti-clockwise direction (as a deceleration ritual). Small clouds now form from the depths of the porcelain cup (or the samova glass).Stirring is not common - this stems from the time when the Kluntje was very expensive and should not dissolve so quickly. In addition, you can drink the tea in three layers - first comes the cream, then the strong tea and finally the sweetness of the "Kluntje". Three portions are East Frisian right and are refilled without being asked. If you can't drink any more after that, you put or place your spoon in the drinking vessel.
