Public Talk: A Talk about the Colours of Tea by Dr Yupin Chung
From this one plant, tea makers can create different categories of tea. In this talk, Yupin will explore the colours of tea, followed by a unique tea tasting. Enjoy the delicate flavours of teas enhanced by the sweetness of Scotland’s famous soft water.
Dr Yupin Chung is a curator, art historian, and Chair of The Seven Strings – Tea Connoisseur Society based in Glasgow. Drawing on historical sources and her own extensive experiences as she journeyed throughout China, Yupin not only provides piquant impressions of a beauty now departed but also gives practical information for the enjoyment of fine teas and of the attractive ceramic accessories that enrich the experience of brewing and drinking varied teas. In her research areas she specialises in oriental design influences in the Western world, the visual culture of tea and the Scottish tea merchants.
Part of The Dug Out: Sunday Afternoon Talks for the Public in 2025. Dig deeper into the inspirations and history surrounding the original Willow Tea Rooms building with our series of talks for the public. All talks are led by an expert in their field and include a chance to ask questions in one of our historical tea rooms.
