Our first edition features award-winning teas and aromatic woods, curated to expand the full tea moment
Join Lionel and Macey from YUMM CHA for a signature tea and incense session where award-winning whole-leaf teas meet prestigious aromatic wood incense, in collaboration with ALMA Tea Gallery in Paris.
This is not an average tea tasting, nor is incense used merely as a background scent.
It is an intimate experience where tea leaves and aromatic woods unfold in layers, revealing fragrance, texture, aftertaste, and the quiet emotional tone that lingers long after the cup.
Throughout the session, each tea will be paired with a carefully selected, refined natural incense, chosen for its shared character and contrast. This combination elevates, enriches, and deepens the moment, opening new dimensions for tea lovers, incense enthusiasts, and culture explorers alike.
What to Expect
• A curated tasting of three exceptional teas from YUMM CHA, including rare and aged selections
• A hands-on introduction to Eastern refined incense culture, from classical Chinese appreciation to the Japanese Kōdō tradition
• A guided natural incense experience featuring Premium Indian Sandalwood and top-grade (sinking-grade) Agarwoods
• Sensory guidance focusing on aroma layering, transformation over time, and the lingering finish that defines true quality for your experiences
• An intimate, detail-focused session for guests who care about craftsmanship, culture, and authenticity
