People come and part of the enjoyment of the shopping experience is smelling the teas and custom tastings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Virtual Tea Travels<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Lucky\u2019s already had a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCPlh-0lEe16PCT8WMxuOdbA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> YouTube channel<\/a> that they hadn\u2019t really utilized previously. About 10 days after closing their doors to the public back in March, they decided to create YouTube videos emulating the in-store tasting experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur employees are all super tea geeks and they love to talk about flavor profiles,\u201d says Grossman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to flavor profiles, smell, and mouth feel, some of the videos also include the story behind the tea and its growing region. \u201cSome teas just lend themselves to more background stories, so those are longer,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also do video demos, like this one explaining the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCPlh-0lEe16PCT8WMxuOdbA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> cold brew method<\/a>, and a series called Summer Travel Through Tea, since many people aren\u2019t traveling this summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9u9vpPll2Io\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe did \u2018travel to China with us\u2019 and all the different regions and what teas are grown from which region,\u201d says Grossman. \u201cNext week, we\u2019re doing one on India and Nepal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Technically Speaking<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Grossman and her husband have a background in video production, but their tasting videos aren\u2019t edited or expensively produced. Grossman uses natural light from a window, a brick background in the store, and a handheld iPhone 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe wanted it to be organic, like you\u2019ve come to see us in the store,\u201d she says.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of using a tripod for the camera phone, Grossman moves it with her hand to show the wet and dry tea leaves up close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important to move the camera because if it\u2019s just a talking head you\u2019ll lose interest visually,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grossman feels that clear audio is important, so fortunately the space isn\u2019t large and echoey. She uses the Bluetooth microphone in Apple AirPods to record crisp audio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a little practice, these short videos now come together quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/urCk18nXoiQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen we first started it, people had to do it two or three times so they\u2019d get a good take,\u201d Grossman says. \u201cNow when we do them, we can do four or five in them in an hour and a half.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Engaging with Customers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Lucky\u2019s now has about 60 YouTube subscribers, and Grossman promotes the videos through a weekly email. Each tea tasting video is also embedded on its website product page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe get a couple hundred clicks on the video playlist but more importantly, we\u2019re getting a lot of individual ones on each product page,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s really helpful for people because they\u2019re at home and they\u2019re shopping online. They need guidance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One benefit of virtual tastings is that customers can refer friends who aren\u2019t in the Fort Collins area, and those customers wind up ordering online. \u201cThrough the videos, we can enlarge our customer base,\u201d says Grossman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after customers can safely return to the teahouse for in-person tastings, Grossman says they plan to continue virtual tastings to connect with people who aren\u2019t geographically close. \u201cOur business has shifted online and we want that to continue,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CBBdbYojbWq\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Happy Lucky&#8217;s Teahouse is owned and operated by the multi-racial Grossman family, George, Kari, Grady and Shanti. From our experience of adopting two children of color, and experiencing racism alongside them, we learned that guilt is the glue that keeps prejudice in place. We have to talk about it. We invite you to use your tea time as an opportunity to listen to what our black &amp; brown brothers and sisters are saying about their lived experience, on social media, on newscasts, in books, in movies and through bullhorns. If you&#8217;re an inheritor of white privilege like we are, allow yourself to grieve the guilt of that and let go of it&#8217;s weight. When love flows into the space where guilt has long hidden, transformation comes quickly. This business and this family strongly affirm that Black Lives Matter. We support racial justice, and police and criminal justice reform in our community, while holding deep respect and appreciation for the good officers in the Fort Collins police department who keep or community and business safe everyday. We started Happy Lucky&#8217;s teahouse with the intent of creating a space to build community through conversation over great tea. We need tea time together now more than ever but it&#8217;s a challenge with social distancing still in place. Once the COVID pandemic passes and we can once again gather, we hope that Happy Lucky&#8217;s can provide space for conversations about how we will dismantle the systems of institutional racism that plague our communities. This will set us free.<\/a><\/p> <p style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;\">A post shared by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/happyluckysteahouse\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Happy Lucky&#8217;s Teahouse<\/a> (@happyluckysteahouse) on <time style=\" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;\" datetime=\"2020-06-04T18:13:15+00:00\">Jun 4, 2020 at 11:13am PDT<\/time><\/p><\/div><\/blockquote> <script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCPlh-0lEe16PCT8WMxuOdbA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check out Happy Lucky\u2019s Teahouse YouTube channel.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About 10 days after closing their doors to the public back in March, Happy Lucky&#8217;s Teahouse decided to create YouTube videos emulating the in-store tasting experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":91,"featured_media":28381,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"limit_modified_date":"","last_modified_date":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}},"beyondwords_generate_audio":"","beyondwords_project_id":"","beyondwords_content_id":"","beyondwords_player_style":"","beyondwords_language_id":"","beyondwords_title_voice_id":"","beyondwords_body_voice_id":"","beyondwords_summary_voice_id":"","beyondwords_error_message":"","beyondwords_disabled":"","beyondwords_podcast_id":"","beyondwords_hash":"","publish_post_to_speechkit":"","speechkit_hash":"","speechkit_generate_audio":"","speechkit_project_id":"","speechkit_podcast_id":"","speechkit_error_message":"","speechkit_disabled":"","speechkit_access_key":"","speechkit_error":"","speechkit_info":"","speechkit_response":"","speechkit_retries":"","speechkit_updated_at":"","_speechkit_link":"","_speechkit_text":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.12 -
