About the event
Exploring the Diverse World of Tea
2025 San Jose Tea Festival
San Jose, a hub of innovation and innovative technology, thrives on a vibrant, avant-garde lifestyle. Yet, amidst the constant creation and invention, a yearning for tranquility persists. The San Jose Tea Festival answers this call, offering a moment of respite and connection to ancient traditions in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Attendees can embark on a sensory journey, exploring the diverse world of tea, from delicate white teas to robust black teas, fragrant oolongs to soothing herbal infusions. They can discover new flavors, learn about tea’s rich history and cultural significance through workshops and lectures, connect with fellow tea enthusiasts, and explore a variety of tea vendors, teaware, and related crafts.
The festival aims to create a relaxing and educational atmosphere, offering a unique opportunity to experience the world’s second most consumed beverage (after water).
