Oboro | Mindful Tea Ceremony in a 100-Year-Old Kyoto Teahouse
Rated 4.9 Stars, based on 15 Reviews.
Destination: Kyoto.
What makes Oboro’s tea ceremony truly special is its focus on authentic connection and sensory immersion. By minimizing visual distractions, the setting draws attention to the small but meaningful details—such as the sound of hot water being poured or the gentle aroma of freshly whisked tea. This approach creates a calm, welcoming atmosphere where guests feel comfortable asking questions or sitting in appreciative silence. The organic tea itself, prepared with time-honored techniques, underscores a deeper respect for tradition and nature. The ceremony’s flexible etiquette allows newcomers and seasoned tea enthusiasts alike to engage at their own pace, emphasizing enjoyment over perfection. Finally, the intimate environment, illuminated by handmade candles, offers a rare opportunity for guests to pause, reflect, and experience a moment of genuine mindfulness—a lasting treasure that extends well beyond the tearoom. *In summer, we perform a tea ceremony using chilled water and ice.
