Beyond tea sampling lies a profound history and philosophy of the ancient art of tea appreciation, which we believe is best uncovered through learning. Whether you are tea sommelier or simply curious about tea, Tea Chapter believes that anyone can learn and appreciate its fascinating culture, just like how our founding members fell in love with the art quite by chance.
Tea appreciation courses and workshops are offered at the Tea Chapter to divulge the intricate art to our customers. These private sessions are specially designed to most optimally engage each individual through a personal and tailored delivery of instruction. With each programme, you will be introduced to the origins of Chinese tea, distinctive characteristics of the tea portfolio and the modalities of appreciation and creation. Choose from two key types of programmes, educational or exposure, for an instructive deep dive or a leisurely introduction to Chinese tea culture.

Colleges and Universities. On a yearly basis, over 10,000 students learn to brew and appreciate a variety of Chinese tea. These youth courses are carefully designed with interactivity and relevance in mind, with a clear purpose of encouraging students to initiate access to Chinese culture and heritage, especially in an increasingly saturated modern world.
Presently, two distinct packages are offered to students to educate them on the various tenets of tea culture, particularly via a localised focus on gaining hands-on experience in tea making and handicraft.
