Guests can join us on select Tuesdays for an exclusive docent-led tea tour where they can learn the basics of Chanoyu and Japanese casual tea. The program begins with a tour of the tea house "Musoan" where you can admire Japanese seasonal art displays, learn about the history of the tea house, and gain an introduction to modern Japanese tea culture.
Afterwards, you can indulge in a Japanese casual tea tasting service in the tea house, where you will get to enjoy sencha, genmaicha, hojicha, and a Japanese sweet on authentic dishware. The entire tour will last for 60 minutes, giving you ample time to soak in the experience and ask questions.
The final 15 minutes will allow guests to explore the Roji on a docent led tour, where guests will get to learn about the design of the Garden and its purpose in Japanese tea culture and history.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn and experience the art of Japanese tea culture within our beautiful roji and tea house.
