FAQ
What is the Amazing Tea Race?
You could call it a sourcing trip, but it's more than just purchasing tea. The Amazing Tea Race is a journey to the very roots of tea, on the tea farms across Asia. We want to not only share the best teas in the world, but to also connect you to the people, places, and stories behind these amazing teas.
Where are we going on the Amazing Tea Race?
This year, we are returning to Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, China, Japan, and Taiwan. This will take us from the lowland gardens of Assam, to the high mountain farms of Taiwan, and lots of tea culture and tea crafting in action!
How can I get involved?
We welcome our retail partners, fellow educators, and tea scholars to join us on the journey! If you are a tea specialist and are interested in co-traveling with us and learning about tea in Asia, please email us at info@tealet.com
