What we’re about
We love tea – and we love people who love tea. Whether you're a curious beginner or a diehard tea fanatic, we have events to suit your level of connoisseur-ism and palate. Our events range from casual cuppas, yum cha and high tea to more formal tea tastings, workshops and experimental tea degustation.
Find out more about tea and share tea with new friends. Happy sipping!
