Online Visit to The Chitra Collection
Since many people cannot get to London to visit the Chitra Collection in person, Evelyn Earl, Assistant Curator of the Collection, has kindly agreed to host an online ‘Show & Tell’ event of precious items from the Collection. This will take place on Wednesday 25th June 2025, from 4pm to 5.30pm
Dr Carrie Ruxton, dietician and member of the Tea Advisory Panel, will give us all the up-to-date news about Tea’s Health Benefits and what we can legally say about Tea, and its health-giving ingredients, on packaging, websites, blogs, etc. Monday 14th July 2025 6pm – 7.15pm London time – online
Japan is well known as a producer of green tea, but few people are aware of its long history of black tea production for export. In this session, we will explore the current state of black tea production in Japan by tasting four different small-batch black teas made from unique Japanese cultivars. Saturday 26th July from 10am to 11.30 am, UK time
Another chance to Visit The Chitra Collection in London
