Rising Qi -

升腾之气

Lemongrass & Guangdong kaffir lime ganache

Used extensively in cooking & brewed in teas by minority tribes in China’s sub-tropical Yunnan province bordering South-East Asia, by its aromatic nature, lemongrass is believed to invigorate the senses, promote qi energy flow, uplift mood, calm the mind & relieve stress.

On the same sub-tropical line, Guangdong’s kaffir lime is intensely fragrant & complex, while being less acidic. Lime promotes the flow of qi energy, regulates blood circulation & eliminates toxins from the body.

Lytchee tames the Lemon Spirit -

荔枝驯服柠檬精

Lychee & Lemon ganache

The Litchi, as one of the China’s most culturally profound fruits, represents beauty, good luck, growth & wisdom.

While in ancient medical texts the sourness of the lemon promotes elimination of toxins & reduces hypertension, a Lemon spirit (柠檬精) in modern colloquial Chinese expresses a self-deprecating sourness & envy of others both materially & emotionally.

Here the soft sweet taste & wisdom of the lychee tames the sourness of the lemon flavour & the envy of the lemon spirit.

Zen elixir, Blessed future -

禅定灵药，成就幸福未来

Matcha & Pomegranate ganache

Matcha green tea was a common beverage amongst Buddhist monks since the Song Dynasty (10-13 AD). Eisai, a travelling Japanese monk studying Zen Buddhism in China, brought matcha back to Japan, calling it ‘the elixir of the immortals’.

Buddhists consider pomegranate to be one of the three blessed fruits, representing fertility, abundance, and a blessed future.
