茶聚・慢享 日本茶 2026 August 16 (Cantonese & Mandarin)

Join us for a relaxed afternoon of tea, tasting, and good company. This isn't a formal, silent tea ceremony — it's a social gathering where you can sip, chat, and connect with fellow tea lovers over seven different Japanese teas.

What You'll Experience

Over the course of this 2-hour session, you'll taste your way through a curated lineup of Japanese teas, moving from light and delicate to rich and bold:

• Gyokuro (玉露) — a prized, shade-grown green tea known for its deep umami sweetness
• Sencha (煎茶) — Japan's most popular everyday green tea, fresh and grassy
• Hojicha (玄米茶/焙茶) — roasted tea with a warm, toasty aroma
• Oolong (烏龍茶) — semi-fermented, with a fuller, more complex flavour
• Traditional Matcha Tea Ceremony — a live demonstration of authentic matcha preparation, with the chance to ask questions and watch the process up close
• Hojicha Latte — smooth, roasted, and comforting
• Matcha Dirty — a bold matcha and espresso combination to finish

Each tea is freshly prepared and introduced before tasting, so you'll learn a little about its origin and character as you go — no tea knowledge required.

Sweet Pairings

Complimentary bite-sized desserts will be served throughout the afternoon, thoughtfully paired to complement the teas.
