The Chinese Tea Company

My daughter and I spent a wonderful afternoon in a private tea tasting with Juyan. Her knowledge about tea, it’s production and provenance seems limitless. You quickly understand why good tea is not cheap and needs time to be fully enjoyed. You learn how to appreciate tea and the act of making tea will never be the same again. Over 2 hours spent drinking gorgeous teas and chatting went by in no time. Highly recommended to all lovers of fine tea.

Unfortunately I didn't have time for a ceremony but this shop is everything you can dream of for Chinese tea. Miss Juyan is as nice and helpful as she is knowledgeable about tea. The teaware is also top quality and gives you the most authentic feel of what traditional Chinese deserves. Last but definitely not least, is the tea; put simply, the selection available is the purest and most authentic I have ever seen outside of Asia with all varieties of oxidation levels and tea from all over china. Honestly, this place is a must-see for everyone interested in tea and you can take my word for it that you will leave happy.

Anyone who is into Chinese Tea or simply wish to know more about it, please look no further, this is the best place in London to get tea tasting event from the tea shop owner, find your special tea pot or get high quality tea supplies directly sourced from China. I recommend start with black tea or oolong tea, you won't be disappointed.

My friend and I booked in for 2 hours of tea tasting not quite sure what we were going to experience. We tasted 4 teas with the very knowledgeable, and passionate about her subject shop owner. We learnt so much and it turned out to be a great way to switch off from the stresses of work and London life whilst enjoying learning about new things and tastes. If you are looking for something different and mindful to do please give it a go.
