This month's talk will take place at the Pump Rooms on September 5.
Hosted by Paul Harding, the talk will be about the 1773 Boston Tea Party and the etiquette of taking tea.
The infamous Boston Tea Party was an American political and mercantile protest which took place on December 16, 1773, by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, Massachusetts.
They were targeting the Tea Act of that same year, with the protest including destroying an entire shipment of tea by throwing chests into the harbour.
