What to expect with your Nihon Matsuri Tea Ceremony experience

For All of the participants:

 

• The door opens 15 minutes before each session and closes 5 minutes before each session. Please come to the West Wing Building no later than 5 minutes before the session.

• Please be quiet and respectful to others during the session.

• Children are welcome, but if they cannot stay quiet or need to move around, we ask you to take them outside.

• You can take pictures during the session.

​

For the tea tasters:

 

    ● The green tea being served is caffeinated.

　● You will be served a sugary treat followed by a bowl of tea.

　● When served the tea, bow your head to show your thanks rather than speaking – a quiet setting makes for a perfect  tea ceremony.
