About Morning Serenity: Chinese Tea Tasting & Culture at Crowell Library
Start your morning with Chinese tea. Enjoy a guided tasting and learn the culture behind authentic teas with Hence Tea.
Join Hence Tea for a relaxing, quiet, and lovely outdoor gathering of authentic Chinese tea tasting at the courtyard of Crowell Public Library. This peaceful setting provides the perfect atmosphere to slow down and experience the beauty of traditional Chinese tea culture.
During the session, we will explore a curated selection of teas served Gongfu style, including Green Tea (Pre-Qingming), oolong, black tea, and raw pu-erh made from ancient tea trees. You’ll learn about the unique characteristics of each tea—its origin, flavor profile, and the traditions behind it.
Learn the Art of Tea Brewing
We will demonstrate traditional loose-leaf tea brewing techniques and explain how water temperature, timing, and tea ware influence flavor. Guests who are interested will also have the opportunity to practice brewing and gain confidence preparing tea at home.
Tea Samples & Sweet Pairings
Participants will enjoy multiple tea tastings during the session and receive complimentary samples of loose-leaf tea to take home. Light sweet pairings will also be provided to complement the teas and enhance the tasting experience.
At Hence Tea, we believe that “Tea Tasting is Friend Making.” This gathering is a wonderful opportunity to relax, learn something new, and connect with fellow tea lovers in a calm and welcoming environment.
