Cần Quan Tâm
Step into the refined world of West Lake Lotus Tea (Trà Sen Hồ Tây) — the most treasured tea tradition of Hanoi, once reserved for royalty and scholars. In this immersive workshop, you’ll explore how delicate lotus fragrance is naturally infused into green tea using an age-old, labor-intensive method that requires over 1,000 fresh lotus flowers for just one kilogram of tea. This is not just a tea tasting — it’s a cultural journey into Hanoi’s slow rhythm, craftsmanship, and quiet elegance. A portion of the experience supports children’s education at our farm — a meaningful way to honor the hands behind every leaf you enjoy.

5.00What an amazing experience! Mark was very informative and an amazing demonstrator/teacher. I've been to Vietnam a number of times and have always loved the coffee. I am now confident enough to brew my own back in Australia. I also appreciated that he stayed back a little longer to explain how salt coffee was made.
The coffee workshop has been amazing!
