Fado & Tea: A Night of Emotion, Music & Gong Fu Ceremony | 21 Sept | 18:30

Date: September 21
Time: 18:30–20:30
Location: Moychay Tea Culture Club, Amsterdam
Tickets: €45

Step into an intimate evening where the soulful sound of Portuguese Fado meets the meditative art of Chinese Gong Fu tea brewing — a poetic journey through taste, music, and emotion. This special collaboration between Definitely Tuga and Moychay invites you to explore three universal themes — Love, Saudade (longing for home), and Sadness — each expressed through a pairing of live Fado performance and carefully chosen traditional teas.  

 Evening Flow
18:30 – 19:15 — First Tea Ceremony: Love
19:15 – 19:25 — Fado: Saudade moment (10 min)
19:25 – 19:55 — Second Tea Ceremony: Saudade
19:55 – 20:30 — Fado Closing: Sadness (25 min)  

 What to Expect
• Three traditional teas prepared in the refined Gong Fu style, each reflecting the mood of its theme.
• Three live musical sets of Fado performed with female voice, Portuguese guitar, and acoustic guitar by Casa de Fado Amsterdam.
• A sensory dialogue between tea and music — where each sip deepens the emotion in each note, and each melody enhances the aroma of the tea. 


Just as Fado stirs the heart with longing, and tea anchors the soul in presence, this evening is designed to slow time, awaken the senses, and create space for reflection. Join us, and let sound and flavor guide you into a shared moment of stillness, connection, and beauty.
