Korean tea ceremonies

Korean tea ceremonies are mindful rituals emphasizing respect, harmony, and appreciation of tea’s cultural significance. They involve carefully preparing and serving tea—often green or herbal—using deliberate, graceful movements that foster a sense of calm and reflection. The process may include cleaning utensils, boiling water, and pouring tea with thoughtful timing, creating an atmosphere of tranquility. While less elaborate than Japanese tea ceremonies, Korean rituals highlight mindfulness and reverence for tradition, offering a moment to cultivate inner peace and social connection through the simple act of sharing tea.
