Sanctuary 3 (Level 3 Suntec Convention Centre)
Travel back a thousand years to a tea-making ritual in the Song Dynasty – where snowflakes fall into the cup, and elegance lingers on the tongue. In this immersive session, you’ll experience the refined art of Song-style tea preparation, where tradition meets aesthetics in a dance of movement, aroma, and intention.
From grinding the tea cake into delicate snow-like powder, to the graceful act of pouring water into the soup bottle to “boil the clouds,” each step is steeped in history. The tea whisk, like a calligrapher’s brush, stirs the surface into a bloom of milky white “soup flowers” – not just a beverage, but a performance of ancient beauty.
Rooted in ritual and sensory mindfulness, this practice transforms tea from something to drink into something to experience. With seven precise pours and a hundred rhythmic stirs, you’ll touch the Song Dynasty’s ultimate pursuit of life aesthetics – where grace, slowness, and sensory depth converge.
Let the aroma guide you into timeless elegance.
