An Evening of Tea Beneath the Autumn Moon

Osmanthus has long been intertwined with the imagery of autumn and the moon. 桂花酒 wine infused with osmanthus appeared in early Chinese literature and later became a Mid-Autumn tradition. For this session, we borrow from that tradition, 以茶代酒, tea in place of wine. We begin with chilled osmanthus yellow tea, followed by three hot teas, each accompanied by a complimentary seasonal pairing: 桂香 2026 Osmanthus yellow tea · Roasted chestnut 岩韵 2016 Da Hong Pao · Lotus with olive kernel mooncake 陈香 2011 Ripe pu-erh · Dried tangerine peel The evening is inspired by the spirit of Song-dynasty literati gatherings- evenings of tea, poetry, conversation, art and an appreciation of the changing seasons. We will end with 月下小诗, a little poetry exercise beneath the moon. No poetry experience needed. Just three lines, and a little space to reflect. A small gathering for 6 guests only. 24 September 2026 · Thursday 8–9:30pm Atelier Cherub 三山望月茶舍 · Kampong Gelam S$88 per person Complimentary seasonal food pairings included. Please let us know of any dietary restrictions or food allergies when making your reservation. We will do our best to accommodate where possible.
