Tea Training
The tea training introduces diverse tea cultures and explains different tea types and their differences. We guide participants on various ways to prepare good brewed tea for everyday and special occasions. Participants also receive a 10% discount on regular-priced store products after the tasting. The tea training lasts approximately 3 hours, plus shopping time according to participants' needs. Tea training can also be arranged in English.
Pre-ordered trainings can be customized according to participants' interests. For example, the theme program can be oolong, Japanese teas, or even different tea brewing methods. It is also possible for fewer people to attend than the minimum billing amount, but the minimum billing will remain the same.

Tea Tasting
In a tea tasting, you or your group will get to taste unflavored tea types brewed so that their best characteristics are highlighted. During the tasting, you will try four different teas, the selection of which you can influence yourself. Tea tasting can also be included as part of a meeting or whatever else you can imagine. The tasting lasts about 2 hours. Like the tea training, you will have shopping time in the tea shop with a 10% discount after the tasting. A maximum of 10 people can participate in a tasting at a time.

Make Your Own Tea
In the workshop, you get to create your own unique tea flavor from pure tea types, spices, and herbs. You can taste your own and others' blends already during the making process, and the recipe will be refined together until you are satisfied with the result. Each participant receives 200 g of their self-made tea and a written recipe, which can be used to order the same blend later.
Make Your Own Tea workshop costs €50 / person
- Create your own unique tea blend

Open Tea Trainings and Tastings:
If you wish to participate in a tea training as an individual without a larger group, it is possible to attend open tea trainings. The price and content of an open training are equivalent to a private one. The dates for open tea trainings are updated primarily in the newsletter and on this page, and later on Facebook and Instagram, if there is still space in the training. Experience gift cards can be used for open tea trainings.
