TWG TEA - Merchant Reviews

If you're looking for a first-class English afternoon tea in Guangzhou, TWG is the place to be. TWG Tea Salon & Boutique offers some of the finest British teas in Guangzhou, as well as afternoon tea and dim sum from popular dessert shops. Known as the "LV of the tea world", TWG has become synonymous with modern urban tea culture, and in its own boutique, in addition to selling more than 800 kinds of top-quality tea, it also serves exquisite Western-style meals, and the products are highly rated. TWG Tea Salon & Boutique offers a wide range of afternoon tea sets to choose from. Among them, the Manhattan Metropolis set for two is a more orthodox English afternoon tea, and it is also one of the most popular set menus in the store: savory sandwiches, muffins or scones, TWG handmade tea cakes and other TWG classic afternoon tea snacks are included, and the portion is full, and it is paired with two pots of TWG brewed tea to form the most comfortable afternoon tea time. In order to ensure the quality, the variety and quantity of refreshments are relatively limited, generally only 5-6 kinds, and you need to go to the display cabinet to choose. The signature Singapore Tower is available almost every day, and although it is not pretty, its taste definitely makes up for its visual regrets, its surface is brushed twice with syrup, and then caramelized with a spray gun, which can make the caramel harder and more sweet, and in the middle is fresh strawberry pieces and soft custard, which is sweet and not greasy. In addition, tea-flavored macarons are also TWG's most distinctive desserts. The macarons themselves contain more sugar and are very sweet, while TWG's macarons have been improved, and each flavor of macarons has its own unique tea aroma, which is worth trying. In addition to the colorful refreshments on the three-tiered tower, a pot of soft and warm English tea is the main thread throughout the afternoon tea time. English tea is very different from Chinese tea, it mixes different tea varieties according to different proportions, blends special teas with different aromas and tastes, and can be drunk with milk or sugar according to preference. TWG has excellent blending technology and a large global tea portfolio, so you can find a tea blend that suits you. In order to provide guests with the best tea drinking experience, TWG's tea brewing water is a global standard, which is purified and fired to 90°C~95°C; The tea-making pot is also specially designed to provide excellent heat insulation, and the metal shell encloses the porcelain pot and has an insulating layer inside, so you don't have to worry about burning your hands. TWG's tea brewers usually need to train for about half a year before they are allowed to take up their posts and make tea for customers. Moreover, in order to ensure that the taste and aroma of the tea from the first cup to the last cup are consistent, only the brewed tea soup is in the pot, and the tea leaves are not included. Such a pot of tea costs at least 70 yuan, and it cannot be refilled. Of course, you can also buy tea and make it yourself, but it is difficult to brew the same tea leaves to achieve the aroma and taste presented by TWG tea brewers. Choosing a tea at TWG is extremely painful, with at least a five-fold tea list full of the names of nearly a thousand blended teas, which is as frustrating as choosing a red wine. In addition to relying on the recommendation of the clerk, we have listed five very popular teas of TWG here as a reference for TWG tea products: "French Earl Grey", a classic blend of teas, is one of TWG's best-selling teas and a classic English afternoon tea drink; "Silver Moon Green Tea" is served with vanilla and berries, which is very popular with women; "Madame Butterfly's Tea" has a variety of floral scents and is also one of women's favorite teas; "1837 Black Tea" has the aroma of berries, fennel, and caramel, and is full of personality; The Lion City Breakfast Tea is uniquely Singaporean. There is also a "Rose Fragrance Tea", which is very popular in both branches in Guangzhou because of its rich and pleasant rose aroma, and it is often out of stock. Guangzhou's two TWG Tea salons and boutiques are located in high-end shopping malls, and their retro and high-profile décor has long made them the most eye-catching shops in the mall. The level of service here is better than that of ordinary restaurants, and the waiters are very attentive to their own teas and meals, and they are very easy to recommend to customers. Aside from the fact that the tables are crowded between the tables, there are very few bad dining experiences. Many people will be curious about the word 1837 on the TWG brand logo, in fact, it is not the year of the brand's establishment, the TWG brand was founded in 2007, and 1837 is the year when Singapore became a global tea trading station. Finally, it must be reminded that the retail price of TWG's shallow bone china teacups for guests to drink tea is about several hundred yuan, and if it is accidentally damaged during the meal, the store will consider whether to compensate or not according to the specific situation, as well as the specific compensation price. In addition, tea and meals in the store are subject to a 10% service charge.
