A little Q&A about the events we host for companies and private functions alike. Consider
booking us for your next get together!
Q: So what is a tea event and why should I care?
A: Our tea tastings are unique events that last 1 - 2 hours and include tasting and comparing
different teas from the Camelia sinensis plant (true teas eg. green tea, white tea, black tea, pu'erh
tea and more) while you learn about teas in general. They are a lot of fun and can add a little flair
to your special occasion or can be a stand-alone event for an evening with friends, work lunch,
etc. The possibilities are endless! Think portable wine tasting but with more education and
alcohol-free.
Q: Who would enjoy this type of event?
A: Technically all ages but consider that there will be caffeine consumed so we generally
recommend it for more mature crowds. If you are curious about teas, looking for a fun
experience in the GTA, or want a customized tea event (this applies to the two hour experience) -
we are the ones to call!
Q: How far in advance do I need to book?
A: For the one hour event, we require 10 guests minimum and at least one week notice. For the
two hour event, we recommend a few weeks notice to ensure availability.
Q: Where do the events take place?
A: Typically, we come to your workspace or venue but we can also secure a downtown space for
you for a minimal fee.
Q: Can we take some tea home?
A: Yes, we now sell our quality sourced teas online (check out our shop!) and at events.
Q: Why is there a different price for the one-hour vs two-hour experience?
A: The one-hour experience is our most popular and what we normally offer. However, we have
found that there are a lot of engaging questions at the end of our sessions and we could refer you
to look up more information on our site OR we could lengthen the experience and teach even
more with a longer time period. Also, there are more teas offered in the two-hour "elevated"
experience (8-10 teas compared to 6 with the standard one-hour experience). We can adjust and
customize the two-hour experience as well, if you have ideas or preferences. For example, the
longer tea event can be a Travel the World with Tea educational tea event for those curious about
teas or it can be a Meditative Tea Experience which would really focus on the aromas and
calming sensation of inner peace that tea can bring.
Q: I have unanswered questions. Help!
