Wine Is Classy, and so is tea. Whether it is a group of Victorian-esque ladies and gentlemen sipping their afternoon tea out of fancy China cups while taking dainty bites of finger foods and desserts, or the elaborate ceremonies performed by accomplished masters garbed in expensive-looking kimonos in Asian cultures, the very practice of tea drinking is presented as a sign of wealth and privilege—contrasting the "working-class" coffee.note While the inexpensive "cuppa joe" at the diner or truck stop is a working-class drink, coffee has become a high class beverage in posh Bourgeois Bohemian circles, where espresso aficionados drink costly shots of shade-grown beans, chat in pretentious Sommelier Speak about the "tasting notes" and buy thousand dollar stainless steel espresso machines. The Conspicuous Consumption signifiers of costly teapots and fine China cups, and the ritual of steeping and pouring the tea add to the high-class ambiance. This is not surprising. In China, where Tea and Tea Culture originates, high-quality tea was often used by the nobility as a symbol of status, while offering tea was traditionally mandated as a show of respect: during important events, the younger/lower-class member of the family/society are expected to serve tea to the elder/upper-class member. When tea eventually made its way to the United Kingdom in the 17th Century, it was six to ten times more expensive than coffee, making it a luxurious commodity associated with aristocracy. Naturally, as prices began to fall, this led to the middle and working classes taking up tea drinking as well, wanting to emulate the upper class's new tea culture. Even as tea becomes more widespread and "common", and with diners selling "to go" paper cups of tea, the connotation of tea drinking as a sign of sophistication and wealth still persists. Posh characters—most likely The Ojou, the Princely Young Man, The Beautiful Elite, or the Bourgeois Bohemian couple in their expensive home—would often be seen drinking tea during their spare time (which they have plenty of), and might even be seen carrying a teacup and a saucer even when it's inappropriate. Meanwhile, middle-class characters may take to drinking tea in order to look more classy, and little girls role-playing as princesses or rich young ladies may include tea parties as an essential part of their act. A Sub-Trope of Drink-Based Characterization (in which tea reflects the drinker's prestige) and obviously a Sister Trope to the aforementioned Wine Is Classy. See also Brits Love Tea and Asians Love Tea, where tea is used as National Stereotypes rather than a sign of class, though the two can overlap if tea is a hobby of high-status traditionalists from those regions. |

Fire Emblem: Three Houses allows the player character to invite others to a tea party to increase their Relationship Values. To enable the Tea Party social activity, the player needs to complete a side-quest given by Ferdinand von Aegir to find a fellow tea connoisseur worthy of the rare tea set he's giving away, with that person being Lorenz Hellman Glouecester. Both are aristocratic characters who take the most pride in their noble status and have tea as their particular likes. | |

Girls und Panzer combines this with Brits Love Tea. The St. Gloriana team is an Aristocrat Team based on the UK and has a tea set as its coat of arms. The school's creed is "Be elegant at all times", and the students (most of whom have tea-based Edible Theme Naming) are often seen drinking tea even during matches. Their team commander, Darjeeling, who epitomizes the school's promotion of dignified elegance, is also the most prominent tea drinker. Her character page's image even shows her holding a teacup and a saucer. | |

Time Squad: In "Tea Time for Time Squad", the team go to 1776 for the Boston Tea Party, where the Colonists are supposed to toss shipments of tea into the harbor to protest unfair taxes. Only they find them having a literal tea party while wearing powdered wigs and acting all sophisticated, not willing to resort to violence. It's only when they switch to drinking coffee that the Colonists turn into Fratbros and begin the American Revolution as intended. | |

BlazBlue: Elegant Gothic Vampire Rachel, the heiress of the noble Alucard house, practically obsesses over tea. Her most common entrance has her enjoying a cup before battle. She belittles Hakumen by ordering tea at the start of their Boss Battle. Her console story mode begins with a cup of tea, and ends with the same one in her Ragna Ending. Also, Trinity Glassfille can apparently summon a whole tea party spread out of nowhere, and often does so to calm down the more hotheaded characters around her. In Arc System Works' other mainstay Guilty Gear, Ky Kiske—a high-ranking soldier who eventually becomes a King—is shown to greatly enjoy tea and even collects tea cups. |

Parodied in Interesting Times, where the Asian concept of elaborate tea ceremonies is exaggerated to the point where an Agatean Tea Ceremony for a senior court official can take up to two hours to complete before anyone actually gets to drink any tea. When Cohen the Barbarian takes the throne at the end of the book, he shows off his unrepentant lack of class by telling his servants that he just wants them to brew him a pot of tea and bring it to him. | |

My-HiME: Both Shizuru Fujino and Reito Kanzaki, the Student Council President and Vice President, respectively, are avid tea drinkers. Shizuru speaks with a Kyoto-ben, tends to delegate authority, and even in situations that call for action prefers a Slow Walk and a Nonchalant Dodge. And she named her CHILD Kiyohime after a Japanese fable. Reito tends to be easy-going (Haruka often chides him for his "Now, now..." responses to various situations), is polite and encouraging to Mai, definitely a Chick Magnet, and lives in a Big Fancy House. He's also been Raised as a Host for the Big Bad, the Obsidian Prince. | |

50 Tea Recipes from the Duchess: Inverted at the beginning of the story. Hajeong finds that the nobility of Chloé's world disdain tea as a bitter beverage only drunk by "barbarians" in far-off realms. None of her peers know how to prepare it properly, and even if they did they wouldn't want to drink it. Wine and coffee are the only drinks suitable for the upper classes (and commoners generally can't afford to buy it from the far east). It takes hard work on Hajeong/Chloé's part to overturn the stigma against her favorite beverage and turn it into a desirable product. | |

Forever: Henry not only drinks tea, he brews it properly whenever possible, rather than using a tea bag. When Dr. Farber wants to put Henry at ease for their first therapy session, he serves Darjeeling tea with the full tea set in a sort of low-key ceremony. | |

The Case Files of Jeweler Richard: Richard is so rich, classy, and just plain weird that he's obsessed with his royal milk tea and serves it to his wealthy, upperclass clientele. The fact that he's a quarter British also helps. | |

Arknights: Rosa's preference for tea helps emphasize the split between her image as a refined noble and the other members of the Ursus Student group who are commoners, especially Zima who doesn't care much for the drink. It's noted that she has several dozen different boxes of tea in her quarters at Rhodes Island. | |

Mission: Yozakura Family: The eponymous Yozakura family is considered an elite among the spy world, but the ones who reflect their refined prestige the most are Kyoichiro (who, outside of his obsessive siscon, is a reserved Perpetual Smiler who dresses in a formal suit and tie to match) and Futaba (the most responsible of the siblings who is almost always seen in Elegant Gothic Lolita dresses). Their favorite drinks are black tea and green tea, respectively, and when they are called to serve as examiners for the silver-ranked exams, they are shown to be drinking tea. In fact, Futaba's exam revolves around tea ceremony. | |
