I absolutely loved Lu’s authentic tea and food experiences! Lu is a wonderful host, and I felt very comfortable with him throughout the visit. I learned so much about tea, and you can truly feel Lu’s passion for it. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who loves tea, wants to learn more about it, or would like to discover a part of Chinese culture.

Lu was so welcoming, his home was stunning and he was overall just a great guy! He had an incredible amount of knowledge on tea, we learnt so much! Tasted a wide variety of teas and learnt about the process of making them, the teas we tasted were spectacular! He was going to show us more but we were tea’d out! Even before the experience he was more than helpful with recommendations of places to go and eat in Prague. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys tea or learning new, interesting things. I can’t thank him enough for this experience!
Had a great time with Lu tasting his tea! :-) My girlfriend got me the tea experience as an anniversary present, as I kept mentioning I'm too much into drinking craft beers lately and would love to broaden my horizons with some other great beverages better for my body 😅 Lu has been super hospitable to us, hosted us for many hours and shared a lot of his knowledge about Chinese green tea, Taiwanese oolong, and, best of all, brewed us a sample of each! Lu's got some beautiful teaware, out-of-this-world tea imported from small chinese teamakers and a great banter, we have discussed so many topics! For a tea ceremony, I felt very casual, laid-back, and just like having a good tea-break with friends. Thaks a lot for the experience, Lu! 10/10 would visit again!
I recently attended a Chinese tea ceremony hosted by Lu, and it was a great experience. Being myself a tea-ficionado for many years, i can say that Lu is truly knowledgeable about the various types of Chinese tea but also deeply passionate about sharing the traditions behind. We tasted various teas from China and Taiwan, learned about their origins, their benefits, and how the different processes can impact the final taste. It is rare to find such high quality chinese teas in Europe and i think anyone interested in fine food, wine, or even coffee, would appreciate and benefit from this experience. The serene atmosphere with beautiful teaware, clear explanations and nice conversation made it a super interesting and relaxing time. Lu is very friendly, open-minded and welcoming. Highly recommend this event for anyone interested in tea culture, or even just curious to explore something new.
As a tea lover I absolutely enjoyed the beautiful Sunday tea ceremony with Lu and one more friend. Your perception of tea will be completely changed. You will learn history, geography, meaning and experience variety of tastes like never before. Be sure to understand that you don't understand the tea unless you spend a ceremony with Lu. It was one of the best experiences of my life. Knowledge, peaceful atmosfhere and good and wise company. Very rare and very beautiful! Thank you, Lu! Michaela
If you love tea then this experience is for you! With a knowledgeable and entertaining host dive into the world of tea, through a tasting of teas of different types. After this I realized that my knowledge of tea only scrapes the surface and I am now curious to see how far down the rabbit hole I can go.
A must-try and definite recommendation! We had a great time, Lu is a charismatic and tea-passionate host, you’ll feel the sense of tradition and humor in his ceremony. The tea served is exceptional, big difference from what is sold in the tea stores and what we tried ordering from eBay. To make the ceremony even more magical, Lu did a leaf reading for us!
If you dream of a soothing break from reality/routine paired with some delicious tea and snacks , this is for you! We had the pleasure of attending a premium tea tasting at Lu's, and I must say it was a delightful experience! From the very first moment we were greeted with a warm welcome and a calming ambiance in a beautiful space. Our host, Lu - a knowledgeable and passionate tea expert - guided us through a variety of premium teas, each one more delicate and special than the last! A remarkable selection of tea, brewed with great attention to detail and so many tea insights we would never get to know. We even learned how different teas are harvested and processed before they reach our cup! It, literally, unlocked a new tea-love for me! I know I'll definitely visit again when in Prague! Until then I enjoy my own premium cup of tea at home, practicing the magic that Lu taught us!
Chinese tea tasting experience at its finest! The quality of the teas was exceptional, with each tea having a unique flavor and aroma. What really set this tea tasting apart was the meticulous brewing process, resulting in a perfect cup each time. Our host, Lu, took the time to explain the brewing process, the history and characteristics of each tea, and even offered suggestions for how to best enjoy them at home! He willingly answered all of our questions, and gave us a chance to smell and examine the tea leaves before and after brewing. I was impressed with the personalized attention given to each guest! I left with a newfound appreciation for tea and I will definitely be returning for future tastings and to stock up on some of my new favorite teas!
I really like tea, but Lu LOVES tea. You can see his appreciation for the tea he has with the ceremony he does. He wants to inform you about the tea and the process in order to make the tea. It was beautiful seeing the tea leaves in the clear tea pot open. The quality of tea Lu has is something a normal tea drinker would not be able to obtain. He even shows videos about the tea. It truly is a unique experience and if you are able to join, I highly recommend to do so. You'll have a great afternoon! Thanks Lu!
Immerse yourself into the millennial Chinese tradition of tea. Lu is not only a very warming host, but also an expert on tea studies - and will guide you through this quite unexpected and unknown (at least for my wife and I) universe, all in his cozy living room. During the tea ceremony, we got to try different types of Chinese tea, all carefully selected by the host. Lu guides the guests through the whole process - from the tea fields to his cups - with knowledgeable insights (trust me, I had no pre-knowledge on the subject). The “oolong” tea (not sure if that’s the correct spelling) is, in my opinion, the highlight of the ceremony. An extra note, you also get to enjoy an agreeable morning/afternoon in Lu’s charming living room at the heart of a very cool neighborhood (away from the massive tourists flow of the oldtown) - and I’m sure he’ll offer you precious tips about bars/restaurants around. Cheers!
Lu is very knowledgeable and a great host who transmits his passion about tea and gastronomy. Very good and recommendable experience!
Lou’s tea ceremony is really nice. It was the first I’ve ever been, but he gave us a lot of detail about how tea is cultivated, harvested, processed, then we tasted many different teas, it was awesome.
You'll love it. If you like good tea you can't miss it. Lu will explain you everything about the whole process and the tradition.
I had the pleasure of attending Lu's tea ceremonies few times, and I cannot recommend it enough! From the moment you step into his apartment, you are transported into a world of rich history, captivating stories, and the delightful aroma of authentic Chinese tea. Lu's passion for tea is contagious, and he shares his knowledge with a genuine enthusiasm that truly makes the experience unforgettable. I can call each ceremony a master-class. With his guide, you'll not only learn how to prepare and drink teas but also gain a deeper understanding of the cultural significance. During the ceremony you have a chance to try different type of teas in some order. Lu creates a welcoming atmosphere where tea lovers of all levels can come together to interact, learn, and form connections. Don't miss it out! :)
Lu is creating tea and food experiences as unique art. The real heritage from his land, it was not only for special time but also great experience! I am still appreciate having a chance from his heritage.
What a great experience! Lu is a very kind person and a great host! His knowledge about tea is amazing and profound. Would definitely recommend it to everyone who wants to learn a lot, to taste a lot and have an awesome time! Thanks Lu 😊
Lu has a great gastronomic knowledge and he shows it on his favourite places in the city. Not to mention his authentic Chinese tea and food experience. Always a delight to have him as a host.
The full experience was just amazing! Lu is a great tea master, his knowledge on tea is unbelievable but also he is very easy to talk to and willing to explain things in a easy way too. I would suggest this experience to anyone, curious people, experts, definitely you will never stop learning and have fun 😊
You can feel Lu's passion for tea and gastronomy when you enter his house. I've been hosted twice and without a doubt I will repeate! Highly recommendable.
Lu without a doubt is a tea connoisseur. His heritage and passion flows in each sip you take as he invites you to follow along on each stage of history and flavor. He is an amazing host with a cosy environment. An opportunity like this shouldn’t be missed to capture your new passion for tea
Highly recommended! Lu is the best host! You will try some of the best teas together with a lot of fun and interesting stories!:)
During this ceremony you'll try different kinds of tea- Lu knows what to recommend according to your taste. On top of that you'll learn a lot about Chinese tea traditions and enjoy the unique decorations in his flat (some of them are hand made!). My personal biggest like is the sunny living room which makes it lovely place to have a cup of tea in summer or in winter. A must try for tea lovers! ^_^
I have enjoyed the ceremony several times and it’s always a great moment to spend with good company, good food and learning something new about a very interesting culture. Hosting and place are amazing.
Very good and very good explained from an expert and a very nice host. Great experience Thank you Lu
It's always a lovely time at Lu's beautiful tea corner! His passion and knowledge for everything tea related is inspiring, he really has an answer for any question you ask him! I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a relaxing cultural activity in the centre of Prague :)
It was a great experience to take part in the tea ceremony at Lu's! He told us many interesting things about the tea world, how they grow , harvest and treat it and mainly he prepared for us an amazing tasting with high quality teas imported directly from China from selected providers. The atmosphere is very relaxed and you get the feeling to be projected all of a sudden in the Far East! Lu during this tea ceremony is able to transmit you all his passion for the tea and make your experience very enjoyable with his friendly manners. Highly recommended!
I had the opportunity to drink some of the most delicious tea I have ever had and gain a lot of knowledge. I had a very valuable experience.
Lu is the best host, treats every guest as friends - family and has a meticulous way of explaining and carrying out the tea ceremony with detailed explanations. Would definitely recommend, willing to be back in Prague to visit him!
Lu is passionate about tea and knows so much about each tea he serves. It is a one of a kind experience. I learned so much!
Lu is the tea master, he explains everything to the detail and when you'll taste his secret stash it's like you never had tea before. The experience is great and the atmosphere is mystical. Thank you Lu for your passion and your amazing teachings
Beginning to end a very fun tea experience! Lu’s knowledge of tea and how it is properly prepared is only surpassed by his clear love of tea! I now recommend this experience to my friends.
Lu is an amazing host, so generous and attentive to details! I'm grateful I could attend such a unique experience, learned a lot about Chinese tea ceremony, met other nice people and overall had a great time! Bonus: his flat is beautiful and located in the heart of Prague! Could not recommend this enough!🤍

Amazing. Very interesting dive to the tea culture. Never think that it’s so interesting and tasty. Definitely recommend Lu as a team master.

Recommending it not only for the tea lovers but for everyone who wants to have a great time and different experience in Prague !
An amazing tea ceremony and Lu not only knows a lot but is super close. It's like a friend inviting you to his house.
