We loved the ambiance and the presentation. We could “empty” our minds and just be in the moment. It was very relaxing.
Amazing experience. Shane and Nicole are so passionate about tea! We learned a lot and the teas and desserts were absolutely fabulous!

No one has to plan anything.
You arrive. Shane leads the three courses. Every step is explained, so the birthday person can simply be there.
