SIP OF TAIWAN: TEA TASTING | 台灣茶品茶會
Stories & Flavors of Taiwan Tea

Presented by Shiuwen Tai and Noah from Floating Leaves Tea in Seattle

Join us for a hands-on exploration of Taiwanese tea with Shiuwen and Noah of Floating Leaves Tea in Seattle. For nearly two decades, Floating Leaves has connected tea lovers in the U.S. with small-batch, single-estate Taiwanese teas, working closely with growers and tea masters to share the richness of Taiwan’s tea culture. 

This interactive session includes three parts: an introduction to Taiwanese tea and the presenters’ journey as small tea merchants; a tasting overview with guidance on how to taste and appreciate tea, followed by Q&A; and a guided tasting of selected teas. Participants will have the chance to savor unique flavors, learn brewing techniques, and uncover the stories behind each tea. Seating is limited. 

This event is part of Taiwan Week 2025 (October 13–17). Learn more about Taiwan Week.
