We used Ruan and co for a large event, the format worked really well and guests came away with tea blending knowledge a jar of their own brew. The set up and equipment was very professional, and Ruan and his team very accommodating. I would totally book this activity again and highly recommend it to others.

Great teacher Ruan, with a real passion for tea, had a wonderful way of sharing his knowledge of tea in an upbeat, energetic and engaging manner. Really helped me expand my knowledge and try new and interesting flavours. Would definitely recommend for tea lovers or anyone new to tea and wanting to learn more.

Ruan was absolutely brilliant, knowledgeable, had a personality! Frankly my sisters and I were not in the mood on the day, however when we go there, we were greeted by a friendly Ruan who changed our mood straight away.
To top if off, the tea experience was really interesting, we learnt a plethora of things we didn't know. We even got to walk away with our own blend of tea.
Highly recommend, great activity to do!

The process of creating your own tea blend is delightful as it is very hands-on, and you are able to walk around and smell each beautifully selected ingredient component. This portion of the class itself was such a therapeutic experience. High-quality materials are provided for your tea blend, and you receive a lovely jar to bring it home in.
I took my mother to this Impala & Peacock class for Mother's Day and would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable experience and a pocket of calm. Thank you to Ruan for sharing your stories and knowledge with us! + more

Knowledgable, friendly enthusiastic teacher and a nice space that it was held.
Some more basic tea education would have been helpful - including tasting the base teas (white, black and green) for comparison to the ones we did try.
Course is 1 hour, not 75minutes as advertised on Class Bento.
Overall very enjoyable time spent.

The teacher was great and I learnt a lot about tea tasting and blending. I liked that it was a small class it made it easier to get access to the teacher when creating my own tea blend.

I really enjoyed the tea blending class. It was so fascinating to learn about tea from Ruan. He was such a great instructor, sharing his insights and knowledge with us, and he was very attentive to our needs . It was also exciting to be able to create and take home our very own tea blend. I love my tea blend and drink it every day! I would definitely recommend this class. Thank you Ruan.

Ruan our instructor was informative, entertaining and insightful in his world of all things quality tea.

I've come out of this workshop much more aware of what natural quality tea taste like compare to the added artificial flavorings & sweeteners of tea sold at supermarkets. I reccomend this class to all the foodies and tea lovers out there who are interested in learning & creating their own personal tea blend from natural ingredients.
The venue is bright and lovely and there was plenty of time to create your own blend and ask questions. You may need to arrive abit early to find parking if you plan on driving as the botanical store is on a main busy street so best to have time to park on the smaller streets and allow a few minutes to walk there. + more

The teas and botanicals provided were of high quality and vast range and we got really exciting blends that are personal to our palettes
We learnt so much about the history and process and detail behind tea that I never knew was so intricate! We absolutely will be coming back to do this again and are already recommending it to friends and family :)
Thankyou so much for an incredible class!
