An exquisite high tea experience The Writers Bar

Raffles Makati, in cooperation with Ayala Museum, recently launched its Chinese-themed high tea at The Writers Bar, a continuation of well-loved afternoon tea themes at The Writers Bar that have also included other historical periods and luxury brand partnerships.

Imperial Afternoon Tea’s multi-tiered set includes decadent treats. 

The Imperial Afternoon Tea harmoniously incorporates rich history, culture and arts, and offers creative sweet and savory canapé creations to perfectly match The Writers Bar’s selection of the finest TWG tea blends.

The multi-tiered set for two includes decadent treats such as sweet and sour shredded pork tartelettes, foie gras on brioche with Shaoxing jelly, butterfly pea flower macarons, red bean choux au craquelin, and black sesame pralines to name a few. It can also be upgraded to include glasses of signature mocktails, cocktails or Veuve Clicquot Champagne.

The set comes with TWG tea blends. 

Available until March 30, the Imperial Afternoon Tea may be enjoyed at The Writers Bar amidst a captivating collection of Qinghua fine wares on loan from the Ayala Museum’s Loving the Qinghua exhibit, with select pieces publicly displayed for the first time exclusively at Raffles Makati.

These historical artifacts were specifically produced as export commodities from China to the rest of the world dating back 13th to 16th century.
