Live the life of a royal and indulge in timeless elegance at The Moraine. Immerse yourself in a world of exquisite pastries and delicious tea, served in a luxury setting with beautiful views. This experience includes a complimentary glass of sparkling wine.
Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of our Royal High Tea, envisioned by our Culinary Director, Corey Hume, and complemented with the expert execution of delicious bites by our Pastry Chef, Jennie. A low or no sugar approach to patisserie showcases the produce grown on-site and local delicacies, allowing the full flavour of our products to shine.
This unique offering is served on a luxurious three-tier stand designed for two to share. Delight in a symphony of flavours, from the exquisite Strawberry creation with Valrhona Strawberry chocolate to the decadent cherry delicacy and the tantalizing ‘inverted’ lemon meringue pie, providing a delightful balance of sweet and sour. Smoked Longfin Eel and beef carpaccio tartlets add a savoury touch, while the whipped goat cheese with honey and edible flowers provide a whimsical twist. The symphony of flavours is accompanied by warm scones, homemade raspberry jam and whipped mascarpone. Each person will receive a complimentary glass of New Zealand sparkling wine and choice of tea or coffee classics.
The Moraine stands as a beacon of luxury in New Zealand. It offers a refined ambiance with its travertine floors, grand fireplace, and opulent chandelier. Treat yourself and your special someone to a genteel experience reminiscent of a bygone era.
