The Art of Tea Selection

The foundation of any great afternoon tea is, of course, the tea itself. Our journey begins with selecting the finest loose-leaf teas from around the world. Our tea experts spend countless hours tasting and evaluating blends to ensure we offer a diverse array of flavors to suit every palate.

From robust black teas to delicate greens and soothing herbal infusions, each selection is carefully curated. Our team considers factors such as aroma, flavor profile, and origin to create a menu that delights and inspires.

Pairing Tea with Treats

Choosing the perfect treats to accompany our teas is an art in itself. Our pastry chefs craft a selection of sandwiches, scones, and pastries that complement the flavors of our teas. Fresh ingredients and seasonal flavors play a crucial role in designing a menu that is both traditional and innovative.
