Description
Great tea service does not build itself. Counter staffers are not intuitive brewers by accident, and customers are not knowledgeable or self-aware about options. A truly dynamic, mindful, and sustainable tea program, for any operation, takes work, investment, and patience. Yet it is achievable and is seen in quality-driven teahouses, cafes, restaurants, and hotels across the country. In this three-week class, we will look at the variables that separate an average tea program from an excellent tea program and learn the skills required to develop and implement a first-rate tea service.
