Great for one person to enjoy or for a group to share, it is just right for a rest in Yuyuan Garden or as a Shanghai souvenir.
Custom Service Introduction
After Shanghai opened as a port, it became a major tea trading center in China. Black tea was a common drink in Republican-era mansions, teahouses, and Western-style tea parties. Locals loved mellow, smooth black tea with a natural honey aroma, enjoyed with crisp and sweet snacks on slow afternoons. Whether it was everyday people chatting over tea or stylish social gatherings, a pot of black tea with snacks was always a favorite. The store explores Old Shanghai tea customs and blends this Signature Shanghai Black Tea to suit local tastes. Paired with well-known nougat and scallion-oil butterfly puffs, it recreates the relaxed and elegant afternoon tea life of Shanghai a century ago, letting visitors taste the warm heart of Haipai tea culture in one sip.
