- Su Quan Roastery - Enter the sophisticated realm of West Lake Lotus Tea (Trà Sen Hồ Tây) — Hanoi’s most cherished tea tradition, once exclusive to royalty and scholars.
In this engaging workshop, participants will discover how the subtle lotus aroma is naturally infused into green tea through a traditional, labor-intensive process that uses over 1,000 fresh lotus flowers for just one kilogram of tea.
This experience is more than just a tea tasting — it’s a cultural exploration of Hanoi’s serene pace, artistry, and understated elegance.
A portion of the proceeds supports children’s education at our farm — a meaningful tribute to the hands behind every leaf enjoyed.
