What to expect

Discover Chinese tea through a relaxed 90-minute tasting in Shanghai. Your English-speaking tea host will guide you through nimThé's Chinese Tea Experience Set, opening with a seasonal house tea and continuing with five tea profiles: Longjing green tea, Smoked Souchong black tea, Tie Guan Yin oolong, Rock Tea oolong, and White Peony white tea. Instead of a formal tea ceremony show, the experience focuses on what you can notice in the cup: aroma, flavor, texture, brewing style, origin, and craft. Traditional Chinese cha dian are included. The session is beginner-friendly, small-group, and hosted in nimThé's current popup space while the permanent store is under renovation. Photos may show a previous popup room, but the tasting flow and experience remain the same.

Review for: Signature Chinese Tea Experience

I booked this after seeing a Shanghai travel video by Dany Dev, and it turned out to be a very worthwhile experience. The tea tasting was calm, well organized, and different from the usual tourist activities. The private popup space looked modern and tasteful, and the host helped us understand the teas through smell, taste, and small details. It was also a nice place to take simple photos without feeling too busy or crowded.

Review for: Signature Chinese Tea Experience

Shanghai can be pretty busy and intense, so this felt like a little pause in the middle of the trip. The space was calm, the pace was slow, and the tea tasting was really nicely done. I left feeling more relaxed than I expected, which honestly made it one of my favorite parts of the day.

Review for: Signature Chinese Tea Experience

This was very different from the usual sightseeing activities, in a good way. It felt more personal and quiet, and gave me a different view of Chinese culture. I liked that it wasn’t trying too hard to be “traditional” or dramatic. It was just thoughtful, relaxed, and very enjoyable.

Review for: Signature Chinese Tea Experience

A very enjoyable and well guided tea experience. The setting was a quiet popup venue with a modern, stylish feeling, but it still kept the atmosphere of Chinese tea. I liked learning how to compare different teas instead of just drinking one cup and leaving. The host was friendly and explained things in a clear way. It is a good activity for travelers who want something relaxed, cultural, and easy to fit into a Shanghai itinerary.

Review for: Signature Chinese Tea Experience

This was a lovely tea tasting experience and very easy to enjoy with friends. The popup venue felt private, quiet, and stylish, with a nice balance of modern design and tea culture. The host guided us through the tasting clearly, so even if you are new to Chinese tea, it is not difficult to follow. I liked that it felt personal and not crowded. A good choice if you want a slower, more local activity in Shanghai.
