    Today on my tea journey, a truly fantastic place: Beijing’s Wang Fu Teahouse!
    I know I teased everyone about doing more tea market stuff but I haven’t filmed it yet so I wanted to share this instead - a day at the Wang Fu Teahouse in beijing!
    This sort of teahouse is a members club mostly for Chinese businesspeople and artists. People who want a great place to drink tea, eat and hold meetings can join as members, but anyone can come to the teahouse for a drink or a meal.
    Many thanks to Jia Laoshi for taking me to this great place! And of course to our teamakers and Boss Li for hosting us and answering our tea questions.

    Truly special experience. Thank you for including us. I know it can be a little awkward to take a camera into some places. It is even more special that the tea masters are willing to share the tea knowledge! Cant wait for more videos like this.

      @@HoaTruong-km9rk Not as much as you would think with some crafts such as this. For instance ukiyo-e masters are very very very protective of their work and rarely let people see anything other than the more common techniques.

    Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful video with us! You are doing such important work in sharing the beauty of Chinese tea culture with the world. So many people have automatic negative assumptions about China because often their only contact point is economic and political news, and forget that the people and culture of China are separate to that. You are doing such important work - I’ve always thought that we could all get along much better in the world if we sat down and drank tea with the cultures and people we don’t understand and you prove that it’s true 💜

    That was lovely. Thinking on the owner talking about using spaces like this for doing business or special occasions, I am wondering about the different kinds of tea experiences one might experience there and what the social etiquette might look like in these different spaces. In your videos you are interviewing folks (and I am loving it!) but I wonder what the interplay would look like in a "normal" visit. Are there expectations or customs surrounding interactions with those serving the tea? (beyond what you've been teaching us, of course) When hosting a business meeting, are there expectations for the meeting host to pour for others? How might interactions change with the formality of the tea house? So curious!

    • @jessesteahouse
      @jessesteahouse  Год назад

      That’s a great question - it really does depend on the situation, a combo of the teahouse culture, whatever industry is meeting, and the nature of how close the people meeting are

  • @petrchar2852
    @petrchar2852 Год назад

    Very nice and very fancy teahouse. These interview videos are amazing. I wonder what is the etiquette with eating food while drinking tea? I've heard that in Japanese teahouses they serve sweets between the steeps to cleanse the pallet and offset the tea flavour. Is it similar or is snacking not proper?

  • @douwezumker
    @douwezumker Год назад +1

    Do they not burn their fingers when holding the porceling with hot water in it or do they just adapt to the heat over time?

    • @jessesteahouse
      @jessesteahouse  Год назад +3

      They avoid filling it too high but also they have good technique to not tip the cup and spill the water, or make it rise too high on the lid
