  • Czajownia Ul. Białoskórnicza 7-9/1 50-134 Wrocław Phone No. 71 727 95 75 [email protected] Introduction
    Czajownia ul. Białoskórnicza 7-9/1 50-134 Wrocław phone no. 71 727 95 75 [email protected] Introduction WE WELCOME YOU TO THE CZAJOWNIA TEA-ROOM, PURVEYOR OF THE TRULY FINE TEAS. This registered tradename has already become a guarantee of the highest quality of the tea served on our premises or sold by weight in a range of different original boxes. Tis superb quality is ensured by two simple but fundamental rules: - the freshness of the tea is guaranteed by the Company of Tea-Devotees, which imports it directly from tea gardens all over the world, the preparation, serving and sale of tea in the Czajownia is in the hands of journeymen tea-devotees who are highly knowledgeable in the science of tea and skilled in a variety of special tea techniques, tricks of the trade and mysteries. Our way of serving tea is inspired by the traditions of the Orient. And as these vary so much, here is a little guide to the basic principles which the Czajovnia observes: - unless otherwise stated, teas which are fully fermented, scented and flavoured, such as representative examples of half green and green teas are served in teapots h contain a minimum of 350 ml. - teas of more than one pouring, unless otherwise stated, are served in different teapots identified by the symbol e or a and contain a minimum of 300 ml. A solitary tea-drinker is traditionally served with a cup of the type “Gai Wan” c or with the set “Kyoto” b which holds 150 ml. as we are pleased to recommend.
