Green & Black Tea Picking & Processing Workshop
Saturday 5th July 2025 9.45am to 5.00pm (approx)
Interested in learning more about both green AND black tea processing? We are offering a unique 1 day workshop that will take you on the journey from fresh leaf to finished cup of both green and black tea.
This is a fully immersive opportunity to visit Wales’ very first tea garden and to learn how to pick and process tea on a micro-scale.
WHAT IS INCLUDED?
The course includes all tuition and course materials, green tea tastings, hands on processing of fresh leaf, a lovely lunch and a great day out doing something very unique in Wales!
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
In a small group we will start the day with an introduction to Peterston Tea Estate and a tasting of some of our 2025 early season green tea
We will cover some of the theory behind tea, the tea plant and the processes that lead to different classifications of tea. We’ll talk about the basics of tea harvesting and then go out onto the tea field to see the plants and put theory into practice with some tea plucking!
We’ll pick tea until we take a probably much needed short break for lunch
The afternoon will then be spent in our production unit with an introduction to tea processing and a fully hands on experience of taking your fresh leaf to finished green tea
You will end the day with your own handmade green tea to take home and an insight into the beautiful and complex world of tea processing.
