Track
Tea Craft
Fee
KRW 30,000 per person

A two-day program for experiencing how tea's taste and rhythm shift with the seasons — and how the tea ware that holds it comes into play. Beyond simply drinking tea, we come to read the objects that hold it together with the sense of craft, and let that quietly deepen the rhythm of daily life.
