Song Dynasty Tea Whisking

This interactive workshop introduces the elegant tea culture of China’s Song Dynasty (960–1279), exploring the origins of Dian Cha, the traditional tea-whisking method that later influenced the Japanese Matcha ceremony. The workshop begins with an introduction to the history and philosophy of Song Dynasty tea culture, followed by a live demonstration of the traditional whisking technique. Participants will then experience whisking tea themselves using traditional bamboo whisks and tea bowls.
