Relaxing tea workshop with Max - The tea house is lovely! I had an enjoyable tea session and would recommend it to anyone who's interested to learn more about teas/ wants to try different types of Chinese teas. Max is knowledgeable and well-prepared. He's able to customise the selection of teas base on your preference, whether you're new to Chinese tea or a seasoned pu'er tea lover.
