Kung Fu Tea Gathering Held in Boston Area on the Afternoon of Nov. 12, Two Chinese Tea Hosts Brew Famous Chinese Teas
A Chinese kung fu tea gathering was held on November 12 from 3:30 to 5 p.m. at BANPO T. tea house in downtown Belmont, Massachusetts, co-hosted by Vincent Liu, founder of the global Chinese tea community platform MyTeaPal, and Sharon Wei, founder of BANPO T.; a second session followed at 5 p.m. The gathering was free but limited to 10 guests; the event page showed three people confirmed shortly after registration opened, with seven spots remaining.
The two hosts each selected and brewed a Chinese tea, telling guests about each tea's origin, craft and story. Teas were served in the traditional kung fu style over multiple infusions, with discussion of origins, production and brewing. Wei has studied Chinese tea and floral art in Beijing since 2013 and founded BANPO T., advocating quiet, mindful tea drinking in the spirit of a "silent tea session." Liu began studying tea in 2016, founded a tea community at Duke University in 2017, and created MyTeaPal in 2020; the platform now has more than 35,000 users in over 100 countries, and Liu has hosted tea gatherings in more than 20 cities across seven countries.
The Boston stop is one leg of Liu's US tea-gathering tour. Organizers said the gathering is about more than tasting tea: they hope more people will discover distinctive Chinese teas and meet fellow tea lovers locally.
