Wondering what kind of tea your favourite A-list actor Or(b)lando Bloom, Victoria Secret Angel Adriana Lima, and international popstar Lady Gaga sip on before continuing to live their glamorous lives? Looks like you stumbled upon the right article!
Originating from Russia and famous for its edgy concept, Kusmi Tea is the fashionista’s new fancy favourite. Never one to miss out on an expensive trend, W Hong Kong is giving you the opportunity to try it for yourself, paired with a “Russian Royale” afternoon tea set.
From now until Oct. 31, guests can try two out of five Kusmi teas for free when savoring their afternoon tea sets or buffet.
Taking the Kusmi Tea’s roots as inspiration, the W chefs have whipped up a Russian roulette of snacks, including vodka-flavoured cakes, zakuski, Russian beets, Russian king crab, and even a handcrafted ladyfinger in the shape of a Russian doll.
Just don’t expect a series of ever-smaller ladyfinger dolls inside. That would just be silly!
And the royal pampering doesn’t stop there.
Submit a photo of yourself sucking up the Afternoon Tea experience on Instagram and hashtag #kusmigetlucky and #whongkong for a chance to win Kusmi gifts. At the end of each month, one participant who takes the photo that embodies the Kusmi spirit the most (“fun and fashionable”, naturally) will win prizes of either a HKD1,080 Kusmi Tea Box, or a Kusmi Tea Infuser and a year’s supply of – you guess it – Kusmi Tea.
Competition results will be announced on W Hong Kong’s Instagram account at the beginning of each month.
