Tea Ceremony

A Journey Through Time and Tradition

Each ceremony at Yūgen is a meditation in motion. Our tea masters guide you through centuries-old rituals, where every gesture carries meaning and every sip connects you to generations of wisdom.

The ceremony unfolds in our authentic tatami room, designed to evoke the essence of wabi-sabi—finding beauty in imperfection and transience.
