Charen tea space is dedicated to the study of Cha Dao, tea as a means for self-cultivation. We are located in historic limestone and red brick building in Tallinn Old Town Uus street 11, just next to Chado tea shop. Charen translates to "tea people" - this term is widely used across East-Asia and encompasses tea lovers in their different forms, from the farmer to the drinker. You can read more about the workshops and tea ceremonies we hold here If you are interested about the tea tradition we are following, please click here.
Tea houses have historically always been a meeting point for different viewpoints and ideas. We are renting our 30 square meter hall which is perfect for small groups and teams, courses and talking circles, meetings and seminars. In the same apartment, there's also a 16 square meter massage and therapy room that can also be renter separately or in addition to the main room. Read more about the massage room here.

We expect you to be responsible for the space during the use and to hand it over in the same condition as you received.
Smoking indoors and being under the influence of alcohol and other narcotics is prohibited.
Since this is a residential building, playing musical instruments and loud music is not allowed out of respect for our neighbours At 10 PM, silent hours begins. If you don't think your instrument's interfering, contact us.
Please be careful when using the dishes for making tea on the spot (on the shelf above the sink in the kitchen) – many of them are delicate. Teaware is to be reimbursed in the event of an accident.
The organisers of the tea ceremonies are asked to create their own 'chaxi' - a tea stage - not on the carpet, thereby avoiding smearing the carpet. If possible, use a wooden base.
Please make sure that all windows are closed and also the backdoor in the kitchen is locked.
