FiftyForward at Madison Station (530 Madison Station Blvd
Madison, TN)

               “Kungfu Tea Making Demo”   free registration is required

Kung Fu Tea(功夫茶) is a tea brewing process. In Chinese, “cha” means tea.  We can also say Kung Fu Cha.  For Kung Fu, you might be familiar with one of its more popular meanings – Chinese martial arts. But it has more meanings in Chinese – hard work, labor, level of achievement, skill, free time, etc.

Kung Fu Cha is the Chinese tea brewing process that has a little bit of ALL these meanings – you will find out the reason why we call it Kung Fu Tea when you go through the whole process yourself.

It is also a ritual way of enjoying the fragment and profound taste of fine tea. 

Join us for a peaceful and graceful tea party!

Demonstrator: Fang Yu
