Perspectives-Events
The Perspectives-Events are various different form of events about tea. In workshops, seminars and readings we discover, experiment and deepen our thirst for the knowledge on tea. Please note that these events are currently only available in German. For further information on the different events and dates, please follow our link (only in German).
Tasting Seminar
On the first Saturday of each month, 16.00 - 17.30 or on request
Attention: Starting January 2025, new start time. On the first Saturday of each month, instead of 16.00 - 17.30 new 15.00 - 16:30.
The Tasting Seminar is a monthly event on a specific topic of one tea category, which will be held by one of the inhouse tea specialist. You will enjoy an in-depth tasting from our current assortment while getting an overview over a category of a type of tea.
The sole requirement for participating in a seminar is a keen interest in tea; no prior knowledge about tea is required. All tasting seminars are stand-alone and can be attended individually; but since the themes vary widely, visiting several tasting seminars can be of interest.
The number of participants is limited to 5-7; in case of greater interest, the seminar can be repeated.
The Tasting Seminars are in German. For other languages like French or English, please contact us beforehand at teeschule@laenggasstee.ch.
Private Tasting Seminars are available for a group of 5-7 people. For further information please contact us at teeschule@laenggasstee.ch.
