The Way of Tea with Helen Kong

Experience taiping houkui, matcha, and gyokuro to celebrate the transition from spring to summer.

Learn about each tea: the region, history, cultivation and processing, steeping methods and associated rituals and ways of life.

The teas will be prepared in handmade tea wares also made by the artist, and light snacks like dried fruit and rice crackers will be served alongside.
