Tasting, Learning & Blending

Botanicals & tea as ritual

Workshops & Tastings

Taste. Learn. Create.

For those who want to deepen their understanding of botanical infusions and tea as ritual, our workshops offer a calm, sensory learning experience. We pause to explore origin, composition, and brewing parameters — and how plants have held a place for centuries within everyday, nurturing habits.

The botanical workshops focus on traditional plant knowledge behind botanical infusions. We taste flower, leaf, and root, discuss balance and thermics, and look from a wellbeing perspective at the role plants traditionally play — sober-minded & careful.

The tea workshops take you into the world of Camellia sinensis. We work with the Gong Fu Cha ritual and prepare tea in multiple short infusions using an authentic Yixing teapot or Gaiwan, so that flavor layers unfold step by step.

In the programs where botanicals and tea come together, a richer whole emerges — more contrast, more nuance, more comparison.

A private ritual, made to measure

For two people — personal, calm, and precise.

We welcome you to our Blendstudio at the kitchen table and around the island, surrounded by jars of botanicals and loose tea leaves. No other guests — just calm, attention, and room to taste. We tailor the ritual to what you want to explore: purely botanical, classic tea (Camellia sinensis), or a combination.

What you learn

  • Origin and terroir — where does it grow, under what conditions?
  • Stories and traditions behind botanicals and teas.
  • How oxidation, harvest timing, and processing influence flavor.
  • How botanicals traditionally fit into nurturing rituals.
  • The role of brewing parameters (temperature, dosage, steep time) in flavor development.

What you taste

In one hour we taste on average 4 to 6 infusions — a combination of botanicals and classic tea. Depending on your interest, the ritual can be fully botanical, fully tea-focused, or a meeting of both worlds.

With classic tea we can work with the Gong Fu Cha ritual: multiple short infusions with a Yixing teapot or Gaiwan, so that flavor layers unfold step by step.

Go deeper

Want more comparison and nuance? Then you can extend the private ritual to 1.5 or 2 hours. More time means: more repeat infusions, more contrast, and more room for your questions.

Learn. Blend. Experience.

Afterwards, you can have a personal blend created. We design it together based on what you tasted and discussed: aroma, structure, balance, and character.

Your blend is carefully mixed on the spot. We taste it together and you receive 50 grams to continue the ritual at home.

Workshops for groups

For friends, teams, and groups — tea as an experience, not an afterthought.

Group workshops are ideal if you want to taste, learn, and slow down together. You choose a program (from introduction to deep dive), and we guide you step by step: smell, infuse, taste, compare. We bring Ayurvedic inspiration as accessible language for balance and thermics.

What to expect

  • Guided tasting with attention to aroma, flavor, and structure.
  • Comparisons between botanicals and/or teas — so you learn to recognize nuance.
  • Context on origin, processing, and tradition.
  • Practical insights to brew better at home.
  • A calm pace with room for questions.

Locations

  • Blendstudio (for 5 people) — at the table, among the botanicals.
  • Private room I (8–16 people) — calm and comfortable.
  • Private room II (25–40 people) — spacious for larger groups.

Customization is possible

Do you have a preference (more botanical, more tea, extra Gong Fu Cha, less theory)? Let us know — we keep the program clear, but can shift the emphasis.

Introduction

An introduction to botanicals and classic tea.

A calm start: we taste the difference between flower, leaf, and oxidation. You learn the basics of brewing parameters (temperature, dosage, time) and discover how cooling and warming can express themselves in flavor.

The origin of Maison Tisane — flower, leaf, root, and extraction.

A journey through Camellia sinensis — from white to pu-erh.

Good to know

Tradition & wellbeing

In our workshops we talk about plant knowledge and how botanicals are traditionally used within nurturing rituals. We remain careful in our language: no medical statements, no promises — just context, tradition, and experience.

Allergens & sensitivities

In the Blendstudio we work with many different botanicals and teas. Do you have allergies or are you sensitive to specific plants? Let us know in advance — then we’ll take it into account in the tasting where possible.

Pregnancy & medication

Some herbs require extra care during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or when taking medication. If in doubt, consult your healthcare provider — that way tasting remains a good idea.
