Tea Activated Wine, in short TAVIN (Vin stands for Wine), is a new tasting experience that combines millennial Western Tradition in Wine Culture with millennial Eastern Tradition of Tea Culture. Tea and wine have a lot in common. Both are celebrated and performed in the style of serving and consumption by unlocking the senses to immerse in color, smell, flavor and texture. Both beverages contain important elements extracted from natural production processes of its crop, such as tannins, catechins, and polyphenols providing antioxidants for the body. The combination of both, the tealeaf activation and wine infusion culminate in the ultimate tasting experience, that allows you to contrast the impact of various tea choices in the wine.
