Jess Bonin - Tea Specialist

The Odyssey of the Leaf

Embark on an Odyssey with tea specialist Jess Bonin and sonic weaver Kobie K as they navigate you through a Multi-Sensory Meander along The Silk Road. Tea, Tones and Tales is the first echo in a series of immersive events that combine rare loose-leaf tea, live-mixed ambient music and engaging storytelling about the mysteries, magic and myths of how tea has shaped civilisation.

Follow the Queen of Plants, Camellia sinensis, from her sacred origins in Chinese monasteries to the Silk Road, where she birthed sages, built empires, inspired revolutions, and catalysed awakenings.

Ambient music accompanies each tale while rare mountain-grown teas unfold their psychoactive properties and sensory splendour, elevating the mind and steeping the present.
