tinyteahouse will be returning to Irving Gallery in early 2026 to serve guests the classic teas of China and Japan. Take a seat at the tea table to share a relaxed tea gathering of fine teas and fine ceramics surrounded by the art currently on show at Irving Gallery. 

Tea gatherings of this kind are held throughout Asia in tea houses, galleries and ateliers - allowing guests to appreciate fine tea and generous conversation surrounded by beautiful works of art. 

The Classic Teas of China 

Taste classic examples of the five main categories of Chinese tea including Aged Bai Mu Dan (White), Xifu Long Jing (Green), Tie Guan Yin (Oolong), Anxi Keemun (Red) and Aged Sheng Puerh (Puerh). You will learn about the history, origin and brewing of each style of tea.
