For our next tea Masterclass Henrietta will be delving into the world of black tea. Milk? Sugar? Both? None? Her answers may shock you...

As with all our Masterclasses, this will be laid back and gentle. The aim is to be inclusive, informative and illuminating - rather than stuffy or overbearing. This isn’t a class laying down what you MUST do, more some useful advice on what you MIGHT do to enhance your enjoyment and deepen your appreciation.

You will learn a few expert secrets and some of the stories of the people and communities behind the teas.

Pick up a bundle with every tea featured in the tasting and get a ticket to this masterclass absolutely free.

Henry ★★★★★

I went in expecting a stuffy lecture about tea, but Henrietta keeps it so laid back that I felt like I was just chatting with a friend. Her answer on the whole milk-and-sugar debate genuinely caught me off guard, and I've already started brewing my black tea differently because of it.

Lucy ★★★★★

Henrietta’s take on milk and sugar genuinely surprised me—she’s not afraid to challenge assumptions, and the whole session felt more like a relaxed chat with a friend than a stuffy class. The pacing was perfect for a beginner, and I came away with a few brewing tweaks I’ve already started using ever

Grace G. ★★★★★

Henrietta's take on milk and sugar genuinely surprised me — she makes you question everything you thought about black tea. The relaxed pacing meant I could actually sip and think rather than just take notes.
