Right in the middle of Causeway Bay’s busy shopping district, @bousen.teahouse feels like a world away with its zen-like aesthetics and impressive collection of Japanese teaware for sale. There are mainly 3 types of premium tea available for tasting - raw (sheng) pu'er, ripe (shou) pu'er and white tea. We opted for a Chinese white tea, which has a smoother and milder taste, making it more enjoyable for the common palate. Just like fine wine, the menu lists the name of the tea and year of product

Just like fine wine, the menu lists the name of the tea and year of production. The one we chose was called “The Smiling Proud Wanderer”, taking reference to the classic martial arts novel and a play on words for the year of the dog (2018).
A mixture of aged and raw tea leaves, the light vegetal flavour is more unique and complex, and we especially enjoyed how the sweet aftertaste was more noticeable after the second brew. It was also super mesmerising to watch the tea master prepare the tea right in front of us: first using a tea knife to pry up the tea disc and measuring out 5-8 grams, then warming up the clay tea pot with one round of hot water and finally brewing the tea for around 10 seconds.
P.S. They only offer some light snacks, so would recommend visiting when you’re not hungry
