Very knowledgeable teacher and great high quality tea varieties used for the tea tasting event.

He was really knowledgeable and had a lot to tell. He was kind enough to in detail answer all the questions asked.

May be the class could be of 2 hours so that we take enough of it. We missed the iced tea part which was really upset about. Eagerly waiting for the detailed recipe for the same and try it on my own.

Intriguing venue! I enjoyed the atmosphere of the cafe.
The tea class was informative and interesting; i learnt a lot about tea, brewing techniques and ways to accentuate tea drinking.
Thank you!

We loved the Tea Brewing workshop and our group had a great time.
The teacher was very knowledgeable and passionate about tea! It was so interesting to learn about the different types of tea, where they are from and how they are made. It was especially great being able to taste the difference!
Thanks for rekindling my passion for tea!

The teacher was fantastic and it was clear he was very passionate. We learnt a lot, but we also were expecting more of a practical component. Also, standing for one and a half hours was very uncomfortable and some more stools would have been very beneficial.

Some tips for improvement:

Interactive element of the workshop was good but a bit too much theory at the beginning.

Rebecca Tikey • Aug 2018

Andy was absolutely AMAZING. His passion 100% shines through when presenting all his beautiful teas. My friend and I loved everything we learned and we really enjoyed the afternoon. Can't wait to take his Coffee brewing class next!

Very knowledgable teacher Andy, fun class and tea tasting. Would have loved to have more time hands on rather than on history of tea.

The teacher was super knowledgeable but often too quiet and I'd recommend asking lots of questions to get him talking a bit more.
It'd be nice if there was somewhere to put bags, and a bit more general organisation.
