ACADEMY EXTRAS: Teas, Talks and Tastings.

A programme of regular evening and weekend events exploring all aspects of the tea world. Everyone is welcome!

Join Asako Steward and other Japanese tea lovers to learn about and taste a range of teas made in Japan that you’ve probably never heard of before – Japanese black tea, roasted Kyoto tea, panned green tea and some fermented varieties that are not readily available on the market here in the West.

This is a unique opportunity to learn about and taste rare and exciting Japanese teas that are mostly unknown outside of Japan.

So join us for a fantastic evening of Japanese tea learning!

Teas introduced will include:

Batabata cha (post fermented dark tea)
Kyo bancha (Roasted tea from Kyoto)
Kamairi cha (Panned Green Tea)
Black Tea (Wakoucha)
Higashiyama Cha (Cha-gusa-ba method green tea)
