Cultural series and workshop – A tea tasting experience – Shan Tuyet tea trees and the VN tea culture FULL

THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL. PLEASE RSVP FOR THE WAITING LIST AND PRIORITY FOR THE NEXT TIME THIS IS HELD

Test your senses of sight, taste and smell in this fun tea experience session we aim to hold 3-4 times a year on a Saturday morning. See how well you can work out the subtle differences in flavours and aromas. This is a great event to find out more detail about Vietnam’s tea traditions and a tea tasting experience.

To wet your appetite please enjoy this video that was made when some of the FVH committee visited a while ago. See video link here.

The focus is on the special ancient Shan Tuyet tea growing in north Vietnam.

• Why the tea culture is so important in Vietnam
• What makes Shan Tuyet tea different to other teas in VN
• The Shan Tuyet tea trees which are over hundreds of years old
• How the tea leaves are picked
• Traditional VN tea ceremony –  detail about how one should sit, prepare and hold the tea making implements
• The difference between a number of varieties of tea from white to black
• Now a fun interactive part – we taste each tea and learn how to identify the teas followed by a blind tasting competition to see who can guess a selection of the teas by taste, colour and aroma.
