Duet of Tea & Music

Hi Summer, let’s sing our songs together.

Summer is a symphony of scents and colours. Nature puts on a cape embroidered with flowers. So, let it be… let us bath in the floral scents of teas and fresh, yet relaxing sounds of the lute. In this session, you will be welcomed with a chilled Snow Chrysanthemum, the mini-sunflower that energizes us with the summer vibe. It will be followed by Biluochun green tea from Sanxia, Taiwan, scented with yuzu flowers. Gentle, light, and uplifting. For the finishing, we will continue the journey and step into the “Sunset” or late afternoon moment with a wild Hong Cha from Tong Mu Guan. Lingering floralness and listening to the humming of bees.

Each tea will combine in different ways with some of the finest lute pieces of the early 16th century from Italy, mainly from Venice.

Our guests will meet the complexity of Ricercari, the creativity of Fantasias, and the freshness of dance pieces by masters like Marco dall'Aquila, Giovanni da Crema, and Francesco da Milano: some of the finest treasures of the Italian Renaissance.
