Tea Culture at Everich: From Traditional Ceremonies to Modern Pairings

As Tea Sommelier at Everich Restaurant, I bridge centuries-old tea traditions with modern dining preferences. Tea isn't just a beverage at Everich—it's an integral part of the culinary journey.

Traditional Tea Ceremonies
We preserve authentic tea rituals:

Gongfu Cha: Traditional preparation with Yixing clay teapots
Tea Appreciation Sessions: Monthly workshops on tea varieties
Seasonal Tea Selection: Curate teas according to traditional Chinese medicine principles

Modern Tea Pairings
We've developed innovative tea and food combinations:

Pu-erh with Roast Meats: Cuts through richness and aids digestion
Jasmine Tea with Seafood: Complements delicate flavors without overpowering
Oolong with Dim Sum: Cleanses palate between different dishes

Tea-Infused Culinary Creations
Our chefs incorporate tea into dishes:

Lapsang Souchong Smoked Chicken: Creates complex smoky flavors
Longjing Tea Shrimp: Quick-cooked with premium Dragon Well tea leaves
Jasmine Tea Panna Cotta: East-meets-West dessert innovation

Educational Tea Programs
We offer various educational experiences:

Tea tasting flights comparing vintages and regions
Tea blending workshops for corporate team building
Children's tea appreciation introduction courses

Health and Wellness Focus
We highlight tea's health benefits:

Create custom tea blends for digestive comfort
Develop low-caffeine options for evening service
Feature antioxidant-rich white teas in our wellness menu

Case Study: Tea Pairing Dinners
Our monthly tea pairing dinners feature 5-8 courses each paired with specially selected teas. Recent themes included "Oolong Odyssey" exploring different oxidation levels and "Puerh Through the Ages" featuring vintages from 1990 to present.

At Everich, we believe tea tells stories—of terroir, craftsmanship, and cultural heritage. Each cup served connects our guests to China's rich tea traditions while showcasing modern interpretations.
