Experience the profound beauty found in simplicity. Our tea ceremony invites you to pause, breathe, and discover harmony in each carefully crafted moment.
The four principles of tea ceremony
Wa
The harmonious relationship between host and guest, between all elements of the tea gathering, and with nature itself.
Kei
Sincere respect for all things and people, recognizing the inherent worth of everything in our world.
Sei
Cleanliness of body and mind, creating a pure space where tranquility can flourish.
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.
