Celebrating the heritage of its location amid the lush and green rolling hills of Moganshan Mountain in China’s Zhejiang Province, famed for high-grade tea harvesting, Le Passage Mohkan Shan invites guests to mark the annual tea harvest (through April) with a personalized tea-picking experience led by a skilled local tea hand.
Situated on a tea plantation, the French-style country house hotel offers a unique opportunity to harvest the indigenous Camellia Sinensis plant that produces the complex and aromatic tea for which Moganshan is famous. With the help of a tea specialist, guests learn to pick the first shoots from the tea bushes on Le Passage Mokhan Shan’s 20-acre organic tea plantation.
The hotel comes alive in the evening with the scent of tea as Chef Jackie Meng uses the fresh and full-flavored leaves collected from the plantation to create his alternating menus. Highlights include foie gras with a side of homemade tea jelly, tea-smoked duck, green tea biscuits and green tea mousse cheesecake.
