The experience
What happens at the table
A guided tasting of 5 teas. Each cup is brewed in front of you, tasted twice, and talked about without a lecture. The afternoon is hosted by Leaf House with Maison du Thé. Yatu sets the pairing.
- OriginsWhere the leaf was grown, and why that place tastes the way it does.
- The brewWater, vessel, and time. Then a second infusion, which is often the truer cup.
- The pairingA light plate with Yatu, chosen to sit beside the teas rather than cover them.
- The roomA small table. The point is the conversation that starts once the cups are poured.

02
Ketepa Gold
Kericho, Kenya
Bright and honeyed, with blackcurrant leaf. The classic cup of the highlands.
03
Satemwa Antler
Thyolo, Malawi
Cocoa husk, malt and a clean finish from the escarpment next door.
04
Silver Needle
Fujian, China
Downy white buds. Steamed pear, hay and a quiet sweetness.
05
Jasmine Dragon Pearl
Fuding, China
Hand-rolled pearls that open in the glass. Fresh jasmine, never perfume.
Ketepa is in the flight. The 14 November ticket itself carries Maison du Thé, Yatu, and Leaf House.
Why a tasting
Tea is a way of sitting with people
A tasting is not a drink with a programme attached. It is a ritual with a beginning, a middle, and enough quiet to notice what is in the cup. You learn a little about craft. You talk more than you expected.
Lusaka already knows how to gather. What it has not had is a room that takes tea this seriously, and this gently. The Art of Tea is that room: floral, unhurried, and limited to the seats at the table.
