About this Event
For those who wish to ease into the new year, come for an hour-long tea flight of gong fu cha loose leaf tea steeping demos hosted by VC Tang. Lunar New Year reminds us that we may still enjoy winter's inward and reflective tendencies for at least a full month into 2025, and we need not *spring* into action on Jan 1st. The flight includes Thai-grown oolong blends along with fragrant, roasted oolongs from Southern China - and a quirky citrus puerh for those who enjoy a tempered malt-flavor. Preparing tea is a sensory practice of slowing down and savoring the present moment in warmth and good company. An experience of setting aside sixty minutes to savor your morning beverage and establish rhythm for the day.
To be clear, I am not a tea purveyor or sommelier, but a humble tea enthusiast, artist, and storyteller. So while you will be introduced to loose leaf “gong fu cha” steeping, it is not meant as an in-depth lesson in tea craftsmanship, ceremonial methods, or flavor notes, but rather getting to know tea through our own senses. It is a great practice for those who crave centered moments - along with a good cup of tea!
This tasting experience offers an alternative to non-stop, back-to-back days - a calm oasis that invites curiosity and joy through the simplicity of leaves transforming hot water.
Space is limited. Reserve your spot.
*This event takes place at Little Green Plant Bar, a family-owned plant shop and cafe that hosts a variety of fun classes and workshops.
