    The Art of elevated moments

     

    At Hedonia, we consider life as a magnificent journey to be enjoyed to the fullest every day, and we believe that moments shared with others give this journey its flavor. It is by considering these moments with special care that we make them more precious. How about: Appreciating the aromas of wine, instead of just drinking it? Not waiting for a special occasion to dress up? Looking at each other with a smile and celebrating the little things in life? Making the most out of these moments is an Art; an Art that is the very essence of our mission.

     

    Founded in 2018 in China, with French "Art de vivre" at the core of its identity, Hedonia is the first institution of its kind to provide professional training in both etiquette and wine. Two worlds that often meet in our lives: on the dinner table, during important celebrations or social settings, and which both certainly convey similar values of fellowship, refinement, elegance and savoir-vivre.

     

    We serve prestigious companies from the luxury, hospitality or education sectors who receive our training to polish the image of their employees, improve the quality of their service or simply to enjoy a moment of pleasure and enriching entertainment. Our courses are also opened to the public, with activities planned monthly in our training center and venue partners.

     

    Finally, and following a constant desire to build bridges between Western and Eastern cultures, we organize intimate, lavish wine tours in France and China, for small groups of travelers looking to enjoy with us what life has best to offer.
