What you can expect

  • Make Your Own Vietnamese Lotus Tea

    Discover Vietnamese tea culture through a 60-minute, hands-on lotus tea experience at Trà Việt, opposite Bitexco Tower in Ho Chi Minh City.

    Watch a tea artisan demonstrate the traditional craft, make your own lotus tea using a fresh lotus flower, taste West Lake Lotus Tea, and take your handmade lotus flower home.

    Discover the Story of Vietnamese Lotus Tea

    Explore the history of Vietnamese lotus tea from the Nguyễn dynasty to the present day. Hear the story of King Tự Đức and his connection with the tradition of scenting tea with fresh lotus flowers. Discover the role of tea in Vietnamese culture and the craftsmanship behind this distinctive tradition.

    See the Art of Lotus Tea Making

    Watch a skilled tea artisan demonstrate how tea is placed inside a fresh lotus flower to absorb its fragrance.

    Learn about two traditional approaches: scenting tea directly inside fresh lotus flowers on the lake, and the more elaborate scenting process associated with West Lake Lotus Tea in Hanoi. Discover how the methods differ and the care involved in creating fragrant lotus tea.

    Make Your Own Lotus Tea

    Now it’s your turn. With guidance from your host, place tea inside a fresh lotus flower and wrap it with lotus leaves, following the technique demonstrated during the experience. No previous experience is needed.

    Taste West Lake Lotus Tea

    Enjoy West Lake Lotus Tea and discover its delicate floral fragrance and refined character. Learn about the relationship between tea leaves, lotus flowers, and the traditional art of scenting tea.

    Take Your Lotus Flower Home

    Take home the lotus flower you prepared yourself as a unique keepsake of your Vietnamese tea experience.

    After the experience, enjoy complimentary tea tasting at Trà Việt and discover more of Vietnam’s diverse tea offerings.

    What Makes This Experience Special?

    Rather than simply watching a demonstration, you’ll participate in making lotus tea yourself, discover the history and techniques behind a distinctive Vietnamese tradition, taste West Lake Lotus Tea, and take home something you made with your own hands.

    Join us at Trà Việt to explore Vietnamese tea culture through a memorable, hands-on experience in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City.
