Most Captivating Tea Time
The weather is getting cold as we head into mid-winter, and you find yourself craving for a warm cup of tea. If you can, why not make the tea time extra special? LOTTE HOTEL proposes a fragrant and sweet tea time perfect for this winter.
One of the tell-tale signs of winter’s arrival is that you are inadvertently looking for excuses to drink warm tea. In the winter season when it’s crucial to keep your body temperature to stay healthy, a cup of tea that warms your body is almost like a natural medicine. For that reason, it seems like the best way to greet this season can be found in savoring the flavor and aroma of tea. The continuation of the global pandemic is making us withdraw both physically and mentally, so having a cup of warm tea in a special setting can be a small consolation for yourself. Let’s head over to LOTTE HOTEL for a heartwarming tea experience. The beautifully-decorated space of the five-star hotel will help you enjoy your tea with all five senses.
Two types of signature teas, prepared by LOTTE HOTEL SEOUL in collaboration with the premium tea brand Tavalon Tea
Paying Homage to Korean Princess With Tea
Sogongyeon Waterfall located in the first-floor lobby of LOTTE HOTEL SEOUL’s Main Tower is well-known as a place where you can unwind in the middle of a hectic city life. The name Sogong-dong where the hotel is situated originated from its ancient street name ‘Little Princess Street.’ During the Joseon dynasty, King Taejong’s second daughter, Princess Jeonggyeong and her husband, Internal Prince Consort Pyeongyang, had a house in the present-day Sogong-dong. Sogongyeon Waterfall was created in time for the opening of LOTTE HOTEL SEOUL as an homage to the Korean princess who was known to be dignified and warm-hearted. You can have an elegant tea time at the hotel lobby with a special blend of tea honoring the princess and the waterfall. Peninsula Lounge & Bar on the first floor or LOTTE HOTEL SEOUL offers the princess tea selection.
The selection consists of two signature tea blends inspired by the Sogongyeon Waterfall story and prepared by LOTTE HOTEL SEOUL in collaboration with American premium tea brand Tavalon Tea. ‘Princess Wedding’ is a mix of white tea and sweet-scented elderflower tea which helps with calming, sleeping, and colds. ‘Princess Wedding’ has a fresh floral aroma with a gentle, clean flavor. ‘Princess March,’ which means a march for the happiness of the princess, is a reinterpretation of Tavalon’s signature ‘Serenity’ tea blending chamomile, lemongrass, peppermint, rooibos, and vanilla beans. Being a caffeine-free tea with a rich flavor, ‘Princess March’ can be enjoyed even late at night.
