Oahu’s ultra-luxury boutique hotel, ESPACIO: The Jewel of Waikiki, is putting its own elegant twist on the classic afternoon tea experience. Launching Saturday April 13 in partnership with Laurent-Perrier and Tea Leaves, the property’s recently relaunched fine dining restaurant Mugen is transforming its elegant lobby into an elevated tea party.
Beginning, Saturday, April 13, ESPACIO’s elevated Afternoon Tea will be available every Saturday at 1:00 p.m. for $120 per person. Guests will be greeted with a glass of Laurent Perrier Cuvée Rosé before being invited to select their own intricately designed teapot. From there, guests will select from several categories (Black, Green, Herbal, Rooibos, Oolong, and White teas), with highlights including an Organic Wild Strawberry Green Tea, a Bulgari Estate Rooibos, Osmanthus Flower Oolong, and the Pantone Color of the Year 2024 Peach Fuzz White Tea. The tea menu also features two unconventional tea offerings—a Manoa Chocolate Tea and 100% Kona Cascara Tea—courtesy of local partners, Manoa Chocolate and Tradition Coffee Roasters.
The teas will be complemented by an afternoon tea menu featuring elevated small bites and pastries including Elite Reserve Oscietra Caviar with toasted Mallorca bread filled with creme fraiche and chives; Spiny Lobster in a Shokupan roll and smoked trout caviar, black truffle pearls, and house wasabi mayonnaise; Roasted Heirloom Tomato with house Focaccia, olives, and fresh basil; Apple Tart Tatin with caramelized apples and brown butter, crisp shortbread, and English Cheddar; Mililani Chocolate with a 100% Hawaiian Manoa Mililani chocolate cream, caramelized puffed rice and lilikoi; Black Currant Scones with clotted cream and house preserves; and more.
