Learn interesting and amusing facts about the three pleasure drinks and their connection to Meissen porcelain.

In the Baroque era, tea, coffee, and chocolate were very expensive luxury goods in Europe. For the ultimate enjoyment, one desired noble porcelain, initially imported from East Asia. With the founding of the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory in 1710, a wish was fulfilled for Europe: porcelain was obtained in various shapes and paintings that corresponded to European taste.

Why is the teapot round and the coffee pot pear-shaped? What is "Blümchenkaffee" (flower coffee)? In an entertaining lecture, you will learn about the history of these three delicacies and which Meissen porcelain was specifically developed for stylish enjoyment. The magnificent coffee table is set with cups for tea, coffee, and chocolate made of Meissen porcelain in various shapes and decorations, and the finest cakes, tortes, and coffee pralines are served.
Today, tea, coffee, and chocolate are no longer a luxury that we can rarely afford. However, we can make them something very special again by enjoying them in Meissen Porcelain®. See for yourself and enjoy a very special moment with us at MEISSEN.

The price includes the lecture, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and a selection of finest cakes, tortes, and pralines.
