Aged Tea Tasting at Home

If you are looking for a delicious and inclusive event for drinkers and non-drinkers alike, you are at the right place. Described as "fun, engaging, and inclusive, " this workshop will take your tastebuds on a memorable adventure.

Learn about the history and making of aged tea, correct brewing techniques, and nuances and flavors that make three different aged teas spectacularly unique. You will be guided by an expert tea sommelier who will develop your taste for spectacular teas.

Everyone will receive a tea kit with leaves inside for you to learn how to brew and enjoy in the class. This kit does not include teaware. But should you wish to add teaware to your tea experience, we recommend signing up for our Gaiwan Brewing Technique workshop.

During this hands-on virtual experience, you will learn:

• The history of aged tea
• How tea is made
• How to correctly brew tea

This calming tea tasting class is a great way to unwind after a stressful day and spend quality time with friends, family, and colleagues. Trying to plan a client meet-up or team-building activity? Tea is a wonderful way to connect that everyone can enjoy!
