Recent reviews of Japanese Tea Tasting Workshop

  • 5/5 from Daniel Gold, attended Jun 2026: Had a great time at our tea tasting class - the tea itself was fantastic, and I learn so much! Our teacher Jayanna was super knowledgeable and made it a blast.
  • 5/5 from Donovan Sanders, attended Apr 2026: What a delightful experience. Jayanna was not only knowledgeable about all the facets of the Japanese tea world; answering all my questions with effortless wonder, but she also seemed to truly enjoy what she was sharing. Her earnest relationship to tea is beautifully accessible, and translates well to anyone from a curious tea novice, to a seasoned tea explorer. An extemporaneous conversation toward the end of the tasting with her and her coworker, Otis, gave me the impression that I was in good company with good people. The energy and enthusiasm that emanates from them is something I would only expect from people who truly love what they do. Since this experience was gifted to me, I likely wouldn’t have found kettl on my own. But this tasting literally and figuratively left a good taste in my mouth. I’ll definitely have to come back again.
