Events
Tea experiences, gatherings, and retreats
The experiences and gatherings offered by Le cerf-volant and its host Raphaël are carefully crafted through an altruistic, inclusive, and personal approach. Mostly run on a donation basis, those public events naturally give birth to safe, salutary, flowing, and unhurried spaces of multilayered, free, and open expression for tea and people to blossom. This union of universal languages nourishes and tends an appreciation for the impermanences coloring our daily life and the plurality of the precious teachings stemming from tea and its ethereal contemplation.
For more information about the types of organoleptic tea experiences offered by Le cerf-volant, please refer to this page. For those looking to book Le cerf-volant’s tea services for a private event, please feel free to get in touch with Raphaël directly.
