Behind every successful brand lies a story, but few are as intertwined with fate and family ties as the one written by Czech Serafin. It all began over two decades ago in a family home, over a cup of loose-leaf tea and a randomly drawn angel card. Today, Serafin is synonymous with top-quality herbal products that not only provide superficial relief but address health issues at their core.

At Váhy: a Smíchov inn where tradition truly carries weight.
There are places that a person cannot invent from a desk. They must develop slowly. Years. Decades. Sometimes even whole centuries. One such place is the Bürgerhaus U Váhy on Nádražní Street in Smíchov. A building that appears unremarkable at first glance hides within it the story of old Smíchov, family traditions, honest cuisine, and hospitality that is not often seen today. U Váhy is not just a place to go for a beer or lunch. It is a house with a memory.
