You'll begin seated with a singing bowl meditation, letting the noise of the day fall away before the first cup.

Incense is lit to reset the space and mark the shift from arriving to tasting.


Taste, infusion by infusion

Taste, Infusion by Infusion

Your host pours two teas across many steepings, and you follow how each one changes in the cup.


Signature beverage

Signature Beverage

As you leave, you're served a signature beverage made in-house — a quiet note to finish on.


Enjoy two unhurried hours in our Tea Lounge, in a small group of no more than six.
A tea doesn't taste the same twice. It opens, peaks, and softens across a session, shifting in aroma, texture, warmth, and the finish it leaves behind. Most of us drink tea without ever noticing this. Here, you'll slow down enough to catch it.
What you'll experience:
Taste with a method. You'll learn how professionals approach a cup — dry leaf aroma first, then the colour, flavour, mouthfeel, and the aftertaste that lingers. Once you have the sequence, you can use it on any tea, anywhere.
Learn the story in your cup. You'll find out where each tea grew, how it was made, and why that gives it the character it has. Knowing a little about the craft changes how it tastes.
Start something ongoing. Every session has a new theme and new teas, so you'll always have somewhere further to go. Come back a few times, and you'll find you've built your own sense of what you like and why.

Please note: Public dates for this experience require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the experience.
What you'll get
  • Your host pours two teas across the session, infusion after infusion, so you can follow how each one shifts—in aroma, texture, warmth, and the finish it leaves behind.
  • Partway through, you'll be served a signature beverage made in-house. A small surprise we'd rather not spoil here.
  • All teas, the signature beverage, and all teaware are included.
Knowledge required
No experience needed. Come curious, sit down, and let two hours move at a gentler pace.
What to bring
Bring nothing but yourself.

female Women-owned

Hi, I’m Jessie — and tea is an important part of the Five-Senses Holistic Healing experiences I have created at Yuan Sense Studio.
I believe tea can be naturally incorporated into everyday life: as a healthy habit that helps us feel refreshed and rebalanced, as a personal daily ritual, or even as a form of meditation that allows the mind to slow down and become quiet.
My professional background brings together wellbeing, education and sensory experience. I am an Australian-registered nutritionist, an ICF-certified life coach and a qualified meditation teacher. For nearly 15 years, I have worked with private clients, groups and corporate teams, exploring practical ways to support the body, calm the mind and help people reconnect with themselves.
My relationship with tea goes far beyond a personal passion. I have been fortunate to learn directly from highly skilled artisan tea makers across China, including respected masters dedicated to preserving China’s intangible cultural heritage. They taught me not only how to brew and appreciate tea, but also how to understand the craftsmanship, philosophy and cultural knowledge held within every leaf.
As someone who is genuinely bilingual in English and Chinese, I am able to bring this deeper knowledge to an Australian audience in a way that is clear, authentic and relevant to modern life.
In my tea experiences, you’ll have the opportunity to:
* Discover the history, craftsmanship and character behind different Chinese teas
* Learn how to appreciate aroma, texture, flavour and finish
* Notice how the same tea evolves through multiple infusions
* Experience tea as both a sensory journey and a form of quiet meditation
* Slow down, reconnect with your senses and share meaningful moments with others
Whether you are already passionate about tea or tasting traditional Chinese tea for the first time, I would love to welcome you into an experience that is cultural, sensory and deeply personal.
