    • We will share an exclusive collection of exceptional aged teas carefully stored in Taiwan, one of the largest (aged) tea consumption regions globally and where the project's owner is based.  

      During the tasting, participants will savour a range of teas for those naturally stored for 10-70 years, unavailable elsewhere.

       

      Five-Six teas will be presented:

      1. Silver Needle 2019 (Bai Hao Yin Zhen) is a white tea best consumed after 3 to 5 years.
      2. Frozen Summit (Dong Ding) 1999, an Aged Medium-Roasted Oolong Tea
      3. Or 90’s Oriental Beauty (Dong Fang Mei Ren), an Aged, Heavy-Oxidated Oolong Tea
      4. 2024 spring excellent prized Pouchong for comparison 
      5. 70’s Pouchong for comparison
      6. 50’s Pouchong (Bao Zhong)!! Aged Light Oolong Tea
      7. Heavy roasted taiwanese oolong that mimic notes of aged tea 

       

      Why Aged Teas Special?

      1. Transformation of Flavours

      They have less prominent scents but much more decadent layers in taste, and some may experience warm or “Cha Qi” 茶氣, a unique sensory experience. The teas become smoother, less astringent, and develop earthy, woody, and even medicinal or herbal notes as they steep.

      Different storage conditions (temperature, humidity), quality, roasting and oxidation levels are other factors in their flavour transformation journey.

      2. Time is the only ingredient 

      Before aged teas became popular about 20 years ago, people didn't intentionally age teas, except for post-fermented ones like puerh. The true-aged teas were stored quietly without any touch of humans. Time was the only ingredient for developing remarkable tastes. A delightful transformed taste is the fruit of immense patience, a fate, and a cherished treasure today.

      However, new methods have also been developed to make the younger teas taste more aged for higher prices. We will taste the naturally stored/aged teas during the session and explain the difference. 

       

      Your Tea Host

      Macey is a practitioner of tea and incense, deeply rooted in Guangdong’s Gong Fu Cha heritage and “Yum Cha” traditions. Her journey has taken her from her childhood in Guangdong and the staying in tea mountains of Taiwan to formal studies at the Tea & Beverage Research Center and Kaiping Academy, where she refined her sensory skills under the guidance of Taiwan’s renowned tea teachers.

      With a gentle, warm presence, Macey creates tastings that are more than just tea—they are cozy, joyful experiences of shared flavours and stories. Each session becomes a moment of connection, discovery, inviting participants to enjoy tea as a peaceful while uplifting ritual of reflection and pure happiness.
