Overview

This is not a commercial tour or a large group activity.Instead, we offer an authentic, hands-on tea experience designed for curious travelers who value depth, culture, and connection.

You'll be welcomed into a real family-run tea workshop in the Longjing tea-growing area.
This immersive 3-hour experience is led by skilled tea artisans, not guides reading from a script. Here, you’ll learn about China’s Intangible Cultural Heritage by doing.

Group sizes are kept small to preserve the quality and intimacy of the workshop, ensuring every guest can personally engage with the hand-frying process and the deep traditions behind it. The small group lets you ask questions freely and chat with local families while working together.

This is an exclusive, slow-paced cultural journey you won't find anywhere else.
Through their stories, you’ll see how tea connects to Chinese life — from daily meals to how people live in harmony with nature.
