Four Seasons Tea Ceremony

I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a Taiwan tea ceremony this weekend in celebration of Taiwanese Heritage Week. We were split up into groups of five where we were served a different tea by certified tea artists of the Taiwan TeaTalk Group. Tommy Tang, his sister Sunny, and their mother are from Chilai Tea Farm in Taiwan where they grow and produce their own tea. Tommy gave a lecture in the morning and then all three performed the tea ceremony in the afternoon. It was a truly lovely experience.



Spring: "Tea Bud in a Cloud"


Summer: Chialai Green Oolong


Fall: Wu Tang (Dark Roasted Oolong)





Winter: Mi Hsian Honey Oolong (this was my favorite)
