We often find ourselves sucked in a packed daily life. Studio Sayu invites you to reconnect with the present moment and replenish your energy from the daily rush through focusing on tea, it's color, taste and texture while honoring the craftmanship that has been put in it.
Tea offers a complexity in taste similar to wine and even over and beyond. In a time when people are asking for non alcoholic alternatives, tea provides an unlimited palette of flavor notes.
As a fulltime working barista and bar manager for many years, Nadine has always been interested in contemporary culinary concepts. With the Tea Bar she wants to contribute to an exciting and healthy new bar culture in Switzerland.
