Become part of an international community of like-minded people who share your same passion for tea and conversation; organize get-togethers in your city or virtual tea sessions; share your past travel experiences or future plans; ask questions and participate in discussions about the leaves that have always fascinated us.
Join our tea table
Our community is open to all our students from the Xiaoye and Daye courses, to all the travellers we have had the pleasure to host in China and Yunnan, and to all participants in our Tea Club.
You can post in four different sections:
-
General, which includes posts of public interest and a special section dedicated to the exchange of tea and teaware;
-
Alumni, to meet students and professionals who have attended the same courses, compare yourself with new research and talk about the evolution of the sector;
-
Travellers and tea trips, anywhere in the world
-
Tea Club, with spaces dedicated to the individual releases which contain additional content, a summary of all the information, and leave open the possibility for each of you to organize virtual or physical live tastings in your city.
