SUMMARY:The Art of White Tea – A Tasting & Teacup Painting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join Slow Food Hong Kong for a truly immersive afternoon where the ancient art of Chinese tea meets mindful creativity. We are thrilled to partner with a passionate local expert for a unique workshop that goes beyond simple tasting—it’s a slow dive into the history\, nuance\, and craft of one of China’s most delicate teas: White Tea. \nIn this special 2.5-hour experience\, you will engage both your palate and your hands\, learning to appreciate the subtleties of aged white tea and then decorating your very own teacup to take home\, a perfect vessel for your future tea moments. \n \nWorkshop Highlights:\nA Guided White Tea Tasting: Journey through the evolution of white tea as we taste two exceptional and distinct varieties from Fujian\, China\, side-by-side. Under the expert guidance of our tea master\, you will learn to discern the unique characteristics of each: \n2019 Loose White Tea Leaves: Experience the fresh\, delicate\, and sweet floral notes of a younger white tea. \n \n2013 Aged White Tea Cake: Discover the profound transformation that time imparts. Savor the deeper\, richer\, and smoother honeyed notes with woody undertones that define a well-aged tea cake. \n \nThe Art of the Teacup: Following our tasting\, we will transition from appreciation to creation. You will be guided in decorating a blank teacup with Chinese-style patterns. This is a relaxing\, meditative process—no prior artistic experience needed. This hands-on session is not just an art class; it’s about creating a personal connection to the ritual of tea drinking. You will leave with a beautiful\, functional piece of art\, infused with your own personal touch\, ready for your next cup of tea. \n \nThis event is perfect for:\nFood and drink enthusiasts curious about the depth of Chinese tea.\nAnyone interested in mindful\, slow living and traditional crafts.\nThose looking for a unique\, creative\, and sensory experience in Hong Kong. \nAbout Our Instructor: \nWe are honored to be hosted by Cathy Lau from At Ease Art Centre\, a certified Chinese national tea taster and tea artist.
