Los Angeles: Small-Group Chinese Tea Gathering on Oct. 25: Three Teas and Gongfu Brewing Basics
On October 25, a small-group autumn tea event called "Getting to Know Chinese Tea" was held near Echo Park in Los Angeles, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Run in a small-group format for no more than six guests, the session introduced the seasons, growing regions and everyday life of Chinese tea, with a live demonstration of gongfu brewing using traditional teaware such as the gaiwan. Participants tasted three different teas and learned the story and brewing method of each through relaxed conversation. The organizer noted that no prior tea knowledge is required, making it suitable for local Chinese residents and tea lovers who want to start from scratch.
