Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
It is very informative class,
The instructur was very knowledgeable and wasn't rushed answering my questions.
We went over 1 hour for the class, and it didn't seem to bother her.
Recommended for beginner tea introduction.

Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
Great experience. Friendly, knowledgable, and good atmosphere. Highly recommended. The lesson even ran overtime because we asked so many questions, but the teacher did not even mentioned it. We only realized we were overtime after walking out.

Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
Wonderful ! Very knowledgeable and passionate instructor who shared lots of fascinating information that ranged from the global tea industry to how to brew the perfect cup of tea. Tastings included.

Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
The shop is beautiful and the people were wonderful but the class itself for the price was very disappointing. Four small tastings of tea not even equivalent to a medium Starbucks tea. The knowledge gained was three sentences from an hour class and I was offered 10% off any purchases - silly based on the price of the class my expectation was to have been offered a better discount or at least given a small sample of tea as part of the class price. Not worth the money for the class - lame.
I want to be clear that your employees were awesome the entire time. I understand the class was a tasting and didn't expect larger cups of tea but rather a larger sampling of kinds of tea.

Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
I loved this class! I am just beginning to take tea seriously, and this course was the perfect blend (pardon the pun) of verbal instruction combined with tasting. The location was great – Palais des Thes on Prince St is a beautiful little store; the instructor was fabulous, she is a true connoisseur who conveyed information in a passionate, enthusiastic and absolutely understandable fashion, punctuated with frequent sniffs of different teas to illustrate a point. What I learned has already influenced how I am tasting and buying tea. I’m going back for the next level class.

Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
This 90-min introductory tea tasting class is great for someone that wishes to learn the basics of tea production, infusion and tasting. The teacher, Aurélie, is extremely knowledgeable about teas and she's also involved in the family business. A very good experience overall.
-
Introduction to Tea & Tea Tasting
We had a great time, very intimate. The instructor's uncle is the buyer and has personal relationships with the plantations. She had also visited some of these plantations and had a lot of knowledge. We had a great time tasting four categories of tea and smelling many both dry leaves and wet.
