Montblanc & Oakwood "Inspire Writing" High Tea: A Unique Experience
In a world where digital communication dominates, the art of handwriting remains a cherished tradition that continues to inspire creativity and personal expression. To celebrate this art form, Montblanc, a brand synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship and writing culture, has teamed up with Oakwood, known for its exceptional hospitality, to present the "Inspire Writing" High Tea at Oakwood Premier Tokyo.
A Unique Concept for Reflection and Creation
Scheduled to run from February 2 to April 30, 2026, this high tea experience focuses on awakening inspiration and concentration through the process of writing. The collaboration invites guests to take a pause from their busy lives and engage deeply with their thoughts and emotions in a serene environment. Each high tea session is engineered to create a conducive atmosphere for creativity, allowing participants to savor both their food and the art of writing.
An Unforgettable Experience Awaits
Guests will have the opportunity to use Montblanc writing instruments and create their own postcards during the event. They will enjoy delightful dishes crafted with brain-boosting ingredients such as cacao nibs and mackerel, all while savoring elegant sweet and savory items that complement the experience. The postcards can be taken home with original stamps, adding a personal touch to their messaging.
The menu will feature innovative dishes, including:
- - Sweets: Matcha Basque cheesecake, black sesame panna cotta, and a tart made with black cocoa and cacao nibs.
- - Savories: Canapés of camembert and prosciutto, quinoa salad with black olives and feta cheese, black sliders with mackerel, and galette rolls with blueberry dressing.
- - Drinks: A welcome drink of original cocktails or mocktails, along with a selection of Ronnefeldt teas (six varieties) with free coffee and soft drinks.
Each dish is not only delicious but is designed to enhance mental focus. For instance, the mackerel slider supports brain activation, making this high tea not merely a dining experience but a nurturing journey for the mind.
Embrace the Joy of Writing
What sets the "Inspire Writing" High Tea apart from traditional afternoon teas is the emphasis on the enjoyment of the moment itself. Whether you are looking to enjoy quality time alone for self-care or to impress a date, this event transcends age and gender barriers. With panoramic views of the city, participants can immerse themselves in the act of writing while relishing each dish, allowing their thoughts to untangle and providing a calming clarity to their minds.
