About this Event

With a single cup of tea, travel through the rise and fall of a dynasty. In this immersive workshop, we will explore Chinese tea culture through history, philosophy, and hands-on brewing. Guided by tea and culture enthusiast Xinyi, you’ll discover how tea in the Ming Dynasty was more than a drink—it was a way to cultivate mindfulness, hospitality, and aesthetic appreciation.

✨ What to expect:

• Stories from Chinese tea culture and life in the Ming Dynasty

• Guided tasting of Wuyi Mountain Jin Jun Mei black tea and Fenghuang Dancong

• Small-group tea brewing practice

• Observe how flavor and aroma evolve with each infusion

Each guest will also receive a tea sample and a themed button pin to take home.

Share tea, spark conversation, and step into a moment in history.

🍵 This is a small-group workshop. Limited spots available.
