Kung Fu Tea, or Gong Fu Tea (工夫茶), is an intricate Chinese tea ceremony requiring precise control over tea leaves, water temperature, and specialized tools. A complete set comprises at least 12 pieces. Each ceremony consists of 17 steps designed to bring out the best flavors of the tea leaves, incorporating Oriental etiquette and exquisite craftsmanship.

  • You will also have the chance to perform a Kung Fu Tea ceremony by yourself!
  • Our tea sommelier will teach you how to use the Kung Fu Tea set and principles to inspire the best flavour of the tea leaves.
Floriental Studio provides a wide range of high-quality Chinese tea leaves. Our tea sommelier will introduce the features of each tea leaf before teaching, so you can choose the tea by yourself. Our options for tea leaves include:
  • Oolong Tea -- (Iron Guanyin - Light/Iron Guanyin - Strong/Wuyi Rock Tea/Da Hong Pao).
