Traditional Gong Fu Tea Ceremony in Windsor NSW

Just a short drive from Dido’s Place we uncovered a hidden gem, the Windsor Teahouse, where we experienced a traditional Gong Fu Tea Ceremony that felt like stepping into another world. More than just sipping tea, this 90-minute experience was an immersion into an ancient Chinese ritual and mindfulness.

As a group of friends on a weekend away, it turned out to be exactly what we all needed, a slow, grounding activity that brought us together and allowed us to pause. The 21-step Gong Fu ritual guided us through the mindful process of brewing, pouring and truly savouring each cup of tea. The rhythm of it all felt meditative, and with each pour, we felt more present and connected.

What made the experience even more special was the care in choosing teas aligned with the Five Nature Elements of Fire, Earth, Metal, Water and Wood. Each blend was crafted to support our different emotional and physical energies. We were amazed by how intuitively the teas matched how we were feeling. What was also incredible, was how we could feel the shift in energy with each brew. For our girl's weekend, it was the perfect way to reconnect with ourselves and each other.
