What To Expect

Discover Chinese tea through a 90-minute guided tasting in Shanghai. Hosted in nimThé's current popup tea space while the permanent store is under renovation, this beginner-friendly experience introduces a seasonal house tea and five Chinese tea profiles: Longjing green tea, Smoked Souchong black tea, Tie Guan Yin oolong, Rock Tea oolong, and White Peony white tea. Your English-speaking tea host will guide you through aroma, flavor, brewing style, texture, and cultural context in a relaxed small-group setting. Traditional Chinese cha dian / light tea snacks are included. This is not a tea ceremony show, bubble tea, milk tea, or a regular beverage shop visit. It is a modern Chinese tea tasting experience designed for travelers who want a clear, sensory, and approachable introduction to Chinese tea.

I really enjoyed this tea...

I really enjoyed this tea tasting experience. The host made everything easy to follow and created a relaxed atmosphere from the beginning. I liked comparing the different teas side by side and noticing how much the taste changed with each round. The private popup space was stylish but not showy, and it felt like a peaceful break from the busy city. I would recommend it to travelers who want something cultural, quiet, and a little different.
This was one of the most...

This was one of the most memorable things I did in Shanghai. The experience felt calm, personal, and very well guided, especially if you are curious about Chinese tea but do not know where to start. The popup venue was quiet and private, with a modern style and subtle tea details that made the whole session feel special. I liked how each tea was explained through aroma, flavor, and feeling, not just facts.
