Gongfu Tea – A Tea Course from Global Tea Hut

Let’s start with what does Gongfu mean ? Definition of gongfu from Wikipedia: “In China, it refers to any study, learning, or practice that requires patience, energy, and time to complete. In its original meaning, kung fu can refer to any discipline or skill achieved through hard work and practice, not necessarily martial arts.”

So here we share the practice of gonfu tea and gongfu brewing from our co-founder, Mel Nahas’ beloved teacher Wu De from Global Tea Hut.

Meet the teacher:

For more than twenty-five years Wu De has dedicated himself to the study of Cha Dao and Zen in all their forms. Aaron Fisher was born in a very small town in Ohio and grew up practicing martial arts, which first introduced him to Eastern practices. In college, he studied anthropology and Asian philosophy. At that time, he also began a meditation practice, which ultimately led him to India upon graduation. After a few years in India, he traveled Asia, eventually settling in Japan and then Taiwan, where he has continued his studies of meditation and tea ceremony to this day. “Wu De” is his dharma name, given when he committed more deeply to Zen practice.
