The Art of the Tea Ceremony with Cherry Blossom

I am very pleased to announce our springtime tea event “Cherry Blossom Tea ceremony”.

Tea rooms would be decorated with flower arrangements of cherry blossoms.

With the theme of cherry blossom, a Japanese national flower, this special event would offer the full menu of tea ceremony, i.e. thick tea with utensils of flower motif, thin tea, and the Hanami lunch box with a cup of Sake.

To immerse yourself into this cherry blossom ambiance, we’d like to ask you to wear something with a flower motif and/or something in pink. （Optional)
