I kēia lā, hāʻawi nā hale kūʻai alanui i kahi 'cuppa' manuahi, akā ʻo ka pilina o ka ʻāina me ke kī e hoʻi i nā kaukani makahiki.
Ma ke alaloa 9,000-mile o Australia — he lipine asphalt e hoʻopili ai i nā kūlanakauhale nui o ka ʻāina a ʻo ia ke ala nui loa o ka ʻāina ma ka honua — aia nā wahi hoʻomaha. Ma nā hopena pule lōʻihi a i ʻole nā pule hoʻomaha kula, e huki nā kaʻa mai ka lehulehu e ʻimi i kahi mea inu wela, ma hope o kahi hōʻailona alanui e hōʻike ana i ke kīʻaha a me ka ipu.
"ʻO ke kīʻaha kī he wahi koʻikoʻi loa ia o ka huakaʻi alanui Australia," wahi a Allan McCormac, ka luna aupuni o Driver Reviver. "Ua mau ia, a e mau ana no."
Ua hāʻawi ʻia ka nui o ia mau kīʻaha i nā mea hoʻokele hoʻomaha huakaʻi hele, e huki ana mai kahi mokuʻāina a mokuʻāina me nā keiki hoʻomaha ʻole ma ka noho hope. ʻO ka pahuhopu nui o Keaukaha Reviver ʻo ia ka hōʻoia e hiki i ka poʻe huakaʻi ke "kū, hoʻōla, ola" a hoʻomau i ka hoʻokele makaʻala a hoʻomaha. ʻO ka pōmaikaʻi hou aʻe ka manaʻo o ke kaiāulu.
“ʻAʻole mākou hāʻawi i nā poʻi. ʻAʻole mākou paipai i ka poʻe e inu i ka mea inu wela i loko o ke kaʻa ʻoiai lākou e hoʻokele ana," wahi a McCormac. “Ke kono nei mākou i nā poʻe e hoʻomaha a hauʻoli i ke kīʻaha kī i ko lākou hele ʻana ma ka pūnaewele… a aʻo hou aʻe e pili ana i ko lākou wahi e noho nei.”
Hoʻokomo ʻia ke kī i loko o ka moʻomeheu Australia, mai nā tinctures a me nā tonics o nā kaiāulu Australian First Nations no nā ʻumi kaukani makahiki; i nā ʻai kī kī i hoʻolako ʻia i nā pūʻali koa Australia a me New Zealand i ke Kaua Honua I a me II; i ka komo ʻana a me ka hauʻoli i ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā ʻano kī ʻĀsia e like me ka kī kīʻaha tapioca-heavy bubble a me nā kī ʻōmaʻomaʻo Kepanī, i ulu ʻia i kēia manawa ma Victoria. Aia nō ia i loko o “Waltzing Matilda,” he mele i kākau ʻia i ka makahiki 1895 e ka haku mele nahele ʻo Australian Banjo Paterson e pili ana i kahi huakaʻi hele auwana, i manaʻo ʻia e kekahi poʻe ʻo ia ke mele aupuni ʻole o Australia.
Ua hoʻi au i ka home i Australia. Hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā kaukani ʻē aʻe e nā lula huakaʻi maʻi maʻi.
"Mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ka makahiki 1788, ua kōkua ke kī i ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o ka colonial Australia a me kāna ʻoihana kuaʻāina a me ka metropolitan - ma nā ʻano ʻokoʻa mua i ka ti i lawe ʻia mai a laila ʻo Kina a ma hope o India," wahi a Jacqui Newling, ka mea kākau moʻolelo meaʻai a me Sydney Living Luna mālama hale hōʻikeʻike. "ʻO ka ti, a no nā poʻe he nui i kēia manawa, he ʻike kaiāulu ma Australia. ʻO ka waiho ʻana i nā mea paʻa i ka ʻaoʻao, hiki ke loaʻa ma kekahi ʻano a i ʻole ma nā papa āpau ... . ʻO ka wai hoʻolapalapa wale nō ka mea e pono ai.
He mea nui ke kī i loko o nā lumi kuke o nā ʻohana papa hana e like me ia i loko o nā keʻena kīʻaha nani o nā kūlanakauhale, e like me ka Vaucluse House Tearooms ma Sydney, "kahi e hiki ai i nā wahine ke hui i ka pilina ma ka hopena o nā makahiki 1800 i ka wā i hana ʻia ai nā hale kīʻaha a me nā hale kofe. nā wahi i hoʻopaʻa pinepine ʻia e nā kāne," wahi a Newling.
He hanana ka hele ʻana no ke kī, ma kēia mau wahi. Aia nā keʻena kī a me nā "lumi hoʻomaha" ma nā kahua kaʻaahi e like me nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi, e like me Taronga Zoo ma Sydney Harbour, kahi i hoʻopiha ai ka wai wela i nā thermoses o nā pīniki ʻohana. ʻO ke kī "ʻoiaʻiʻo" he ʻāpana o ka moʻomeheu huakaʻi o Australia, wahi a Newling, a he ʻāpana o ka ʻike pilikino maʻamau.
Akā ʻoiai ʻo ke ʻano o Australia e kūpono i ka ulu ʻana i ke kī, ʻo nā pilikia logistical a me ka hoʻolālā e hoʻopilikia i ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻāpana, wahi a David Lyons, ka luna hoʻokumu o ka Australian Tea Cultural Society (AUSTCS).
Makemake ʻo ia e ʻike i ka ʻoihana i hoʻopiha ʻia me Camellia sinensis ulu ʻo Australia, ka mea kanu nona nā lau i mahi ʻia no ke kī, a me ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana ʻelua-papa o ka maikaʻi e hiki ai i ka mea kanu ke hoʻokō i nā pae o ka makemake.
I kēia manawa, aia ka liʻiliʻi o nā mea kanu, me nā ʻāina ulu kī nui loa ma Queensland akau a me Victoria ma ka ʻākau. Ma ka mua, aia ka 790-acre Nerada mahiko. E like me ka moʻolelo, ua hoʻokumu nā kaikunāne Cutten ʻehā - ka poʻe keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo mua ma kahi i noho wale ʻia e ka poʻe Djiru, ʻo lākou ka poʻe mālama kuʻuna o ka ʻāina - ua hoʻokumu i kahi mahi kī, kofe a me nā huaʻai ma Bingil Bay i ka makahiki 1880. Ua hahau ʻia e nā ʻino ʻino a ʻaʻohe mea i koe. I ka makahiki 1950, Ua kipa aku ʻo Allan Maruff - he mea kanu lāʻau a me ke kauka - a loaʻa i nā mea kanu kī nalowale. Ua lawe ʻo ia i nā ʻokiʻoki i ka home i Innisfail ma Queensland, a ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia i nā mea kanu kī Nerada.
I kēia mau lā, wehe ʻia nā lumi kī o Nerada i nā malihini, e hoʻokipa ana i nā malihini mai nā wahi a puni o ka honua i ka pūnaewele, kahi e hana ai i 3.3 miliona paona kī i kēlā me kēia makahiki. ʻO ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻāina he mea pōmaikaʻi no nā hale kūʻai kī ʻāpana. Ma ke kaona ʻāina ʻo Berry ma ke kahakai hema o New South Wales, ʻo ka Berry Tea Shop - ma hope o ke alanui nui a hoʻopaʻa ʻia i waena o nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā hale kūʻai lako hale - ua ʻike i ka piʻi ʻana o nā kipa ʻana i ʻekolu pākēneka, e ulu ana ka hale kūʻai i kā lākou limahana mai 5 a hiki i ka 15. Ke kuai aku nei ka halekuai i 48 mau tea like ole a lawelawe pu ia lakou, ma na papaaina noho a me na ipu hoohiwahiwa, me na keke a me na scones.
"ʻO kā mākou mau lā pule i kēia manawa ua like me ka hopena pule. ʻOi aku ka nui o nā malihini kipa i ke kahakai hema, ʻo ia hoʻi he nui ka poʻe e hele a puni ka hale kūʻai," wahi a ka mea nona ʻo Paulina Collier. "Ua loaʻa iā mākou nā poʻe e ʻōlelo mai, 'Ua hoʻokele wau mai Sydney no ka lā. Makemake wale au e hele mai e inu kī a me nā pōhaku.'”
Hoʻokumu ʻia ka Berry Tea Shop i ka hāʻawi ʻana i kahi "ʻike kī kī ʻāina," piha me ka lau lau a me nā ipu i hana ʻia ma ka moʻomeheu kī Pelekane. ʻO ka hoʻonaʻauao ʻana i ka poʻe e pili ana i ka hauʻoli o ke kī kekahi o nā pahuhopu a Collier. No Grace Freitas kekahi. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia i kāna hui kī, ʻo Tea Nomad, me ka huakaʻi ma ke ʻano nui. Noho ʻo ia ma Singapore, me kahi manaʻo no kahi blog e pili ana i ke kī a me ka makemake no ka huakaʻi, i ka wā i hoʻoholo ai ʻo ia e hoʻāʻo me ka hui ʻana i kāna kī ponoʻī.
ʻO Freitas, ka mea nāna e hoʻokele i kāna ʻoihana liʻiliʻi ma waho o Sydney, makemake ʻo ia i kāna kī - Provence, Shanghai a me Sydney - e hōʻike i nā ʻike o nā kūlanakauhale a lākou i kapa ʻia ai, ma o ka ʻala, ka ʻono a me ka manaʻo. ʻIke ʻo Freitas i ka hoʻohenehene ma ke ʻano ākea ākea o nā mea inu wela ma nā hale ʻaina: e hoʻohana pinepine ana i nā ʻeke kī a me ka ʻike nui e pili ana i ke kofe.
"A ʻae wale mākou a pau. He mea hoʻohenehene, "wahi a Freitas. "E ʻōlelo wau, he poʻe maʻalahi mākou. A ke manaʻo nei au, ʻaʻole ia e like me, 'Auē, he kīʻaha nui kēlā o [ʻeke kī] i loko o ke kīʻaha.' ʻAe wale nā kānaka. ʻAʻole mākou e hoʻopiʻi no ia mea. Me he mea lā, ʻae, he kīʻaha ia, ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻohuhu no ia mea."
He mea hōʻeha a Lyons. No kahi ʻāina i kūkulu ʻia ma ka ʻai kī, a me ka nui o nā poʻe Australia e pili ana i ke ʻano o ka lawe ʻana i ke kī ma ka home, ʻo ka manaʻo kūʻokoʻa o ka lāhui ma nā hale ʻaina, wahi a Lyons, e waiho ana i ke kī ma hope o ke kīʻaha ʻōlelo.
"Hele ka poʻe e ʻike i nā mea āpau e pili ana i ka kofe a me ka hana ʻana i ke kofe maikaʻi, akā i ka wā e pili ana i ke kī, hele lākou [me] ka ʻeke kī ma waho o ka papa," wahi āna. "No laila ke loaʻa iaʻu kahi cafe [he kī lau ʻole], hana mau wau i kahi mea nui. Mahalo mau wau iā lākou no ka hoʻonui iki ʻana. "
I nā makahiki 1950, ʻōlelo ʻo Lyons, "ʻO Australia kekahi o nā mea kūʻai nui o ke kī." Aia kekahi mau manawa i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ke kī e hoʻokō i ka makemake. He mea maʻamau nā ipu kī lau lau ma nā hale ʻoihana.
"ʻO ka ʻeke kī, i loaʻa iā ia iho ma Australia i nā makahiki 1970, ʻoiai ua hōʻino nui ʻia no ka lawe ʻana i ka hana ma waho o ka hana kī, ua hoʻohui i ka lawe a me ka maʻalahi o ka hana ʻana i ke kīʻaha ma ka home, ma kahi hana a i ka wā e hele ai. ” wahi a Newling, ka mea kākau moʻolelo.
ʻO Collier, ka mea nāna i hui pū i kahi cafe ma Woolloomooloo ma mua o ka neʻe ʻana i Berry e wehe i kāna hale kūʻai kī ma 2010, ʻike ʻo ia i ke ʻano o kēlā ʻaoʻao; ʻO ka hoʻomaha ʻana e hoʻomākaukau i kahi ipu kīʻaha lau lau he mea paʻakikī, ʻoiai inā ʻo ke kofe ka pāʻani nui. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua manaʻo ʻia he "manaʻo hope." "I kēia manawa ʻaʻole e ʻae ka poʻe i ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi ʻeke kī inā uku lākou i $4 a i ʻole nā mea āpau."
Ke hana nei kahi hui mai AUSTCS ma kahi polokalamu e hiki ai i ka poʻe huakaʻi ke hoʻokaʻawale i nā wahi e lawelawe ana i ka "tea kūpono" a puni ka ʻāina. ʻO ka mea kūpono, wahi a Lyons, ʻo ia ke hoʻololi i ka ʻike o ke kī a hoʻokō i ka makemake o nā mea kūʻai aku.
ʻO Freitas a me Lyons - ma waena o nā mea ʻē aʻe - huakaʻi me kā lākou kī ponoʻī, ka wai wela a me nā kīʻaha a huki i loko o nā hale kīʻaha kūloko a me nā hale kūʻai kī no ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka ʻoihana e hili a kahe i ka manawa me nā maʻamau o Australia. I kēia manawa, ke hana nei ʻo Freitas i ka hōʻiliʻili o nā kī i hoʻoulu ʻia e ka huakaʻi home a me ka ʻāina ʻāʻī, me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke kī a me nā botanicals i ulu ʻia e Australia.
"Manaʻolana hiki i nā kānaka ke lawe i kēia e hoʻokiʻekiʻe i kā lākou ʻike kī i ko lākou huakaʻi pū kekahi," wahi āna. ʻO kekahi o ia hui ʻana i kapa ʻia ʻo Australian Breakfast, i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka manawa e ala ai i kahi lā huakaʻi ma mua ou - nā alanui lōʻihi a i ʻole.
"Ke noho nei ma waho, e loaʻa ana kēlā kīʻaha ahi ahi a i ʻole kīʻaha kakahiaka i kou huakaʻi a puni ʻo Australia, e hauʻoli ana i ka nani maoli," wahi a Freitas. “He ʻakaʻaka; Manaʻo wau inā e nīnau ʻoe i ka hapa nui o ka poʻe e pili ana i kā lākou inu ʻana i kēlā kiʻi, inu lākou i ke kī. ʻAʻole lākou e noho ana ma waho o kahi kaʻa e inu ana i ka latte.
