Reviews
I’d give more stars if I could! This experience was totally worth it, I was looking forward to learn more about Chinese tea since my knowledge about it was close to zero, and this workshop left me absolutely satisfied. Everything is well thought out, from the theory to the tastings, it was really interesting, the two hours and a half flew by. Max is an amazing teacher, always ready to explain to the most basic concepts ☺️ definitely recommend this experience to anyone who is coming to China and wants to take a break from the sightseeing and enjoy a dive into Chinese teas. (The teas were obviously amazing quality. We ended up buying some directly there, it was great to bring home something that we tasted as a reminder of the workshop :))
