About the event
Discover the art of brewing Chinese tea with the traditional gaiwan.
Join us for an intimate tea workshop where we’ll explore the fundamentals of Chinese tea preparation — from understanding the gaiwan and choosing the right tea, to mastering pouring, timing and technique.
More than simply learning how to brew tea, the workshop is an introduction to the ritual, patience and appreciation at the heart of Chinese tea culture.
What to expect:
• Introduction to the gaiwan and its history
• Guided brewing of premium Chinese tea, Lapsang Souchong
