Tea rituals

NEARLY 200 students from 40 primary and middle schools across Shanghai have been participating in a competition related to tea rituals, in the run-up to the 2018 Shanghai International Tea Culture Tourism Festival to be held June 1-4 in the Shanghai Exhibition Center.

More than 200 stalls will feature at the event, offering an array of teas, ranging from black tea from Sri Lanka to white tea from China’s Fujian Province. Tea sets in Chinese laquerware and cast-iron teapots from Japan will also be on display.

“Tea planted in the high mountains in Shouning in Fujian Province will be introduced to Shanghai,” said Zeng Lianyu, executive of Daning International Tea City. “And as a modern touch, we will have robots serving tea to visitors.”

Chinese and Japanese styles of tea ceremonies will be presented by masters of the art from both countries. They will wear traditional costumes.
