What is Dobrá Tea?
Dobrá čajovna is a place where you can enjoy many different kinds of tea. They focus on serving fine loose-leaf teas. These teas are prepared and served in the traditional way of their home country. The name "Dobrá" means "good" in the Czech language.
A Special History
The very first Dobrá čajovna opened in Prague on Wenceslas Square. This happened on March 8, 1996. Before that time, it was difficult to bring private tea into the Czech Republic. However, a small group of tea lovers would secretly meet. They would try different teas that were brought in without permission. After a big change in the country's government, this group decided to open a public tea room. This special place is the same one you can visit on Wenceslas Square today.
Where Can You Find Dobrá Tea?
Besides the original location, there is another Dobrá čajovna in Prague. It is located between Charles Square and Národní. You can also find a Dobrá čajovna in almost every major town in the Czech Republic. Some of these towns include Pardubice, České Budějovice, Tábor, Ostrava, and Brno.
The Art of Tea Making
The people who work at Dobrá čajovna are called "Tea Devotees." They are specially trained to prepare all the different types of tea they offer. They are very careful with how hot the water is and how long the tea steeps. This helps them make the best possible cup of tea for you to enjoy.
Delicious Teas and Snacks
Dobrá Tea rooms offer a wide variety of teas from all over the world. You can find Darjeeling tea from India or white tea and pu-erh from China. They also serve Japanese matcha and even a full-leaf Earl Grey. To go with your tea, they offer tasty snacks. These include pastries, couscous with fruit, and spiced pita bread.
