ZIAH is a fictional tea room made for this site. The tea, the mountain, the method and Yaowarat are real, and every fact about them comes from the sources below. The pictures of cups, leaves and the tea table are drawn by the site's own renderer; the photographs come from Wikimedia Commons.

Fiction

The tea room, its prices, sittings, rota, address and email are invented. So are the house notes on each tea.

Drawn by the site's own renderer: walnut, porcelain, lamp, and the tea's colour from its depth in the cup.
