Our tea ceremony offers a rare opportunity to slow down in a quiet seaside village, where guests can experience Oriental tea culture in a peaceful setting. Every session is carefully curated, combining tea, story, and calm hospitality to help guests reconnect with themselves through the art of tea. Guests are also invited to enjoy a selection of unique teaware, each piece selected to enhance the mood and atmosphere of the experience. In East Asian tradition, tea was often enjoyed alongside poetry, painting, and calligraphy — the gentle arts cherished by tea lovers. Drawing inspiration from this cultural heritage, our ceremony includes a calligraphy activity where guests can express their tea experience through brush and ink. This thoughtful practice not only adds a creative dimension to the session, but also offers a tangible keepsake that captures the spirit of stillness and reflection.
Snacks
Tea snacks (다식) will. be served. Please let us know in advance if you have any food allergies.
Tea and coffee
You'll be served three varieties of carefully selected tea.
Enjoy a thoughtfully curated tea ceremony, where each tea carries its own story and flavor. Guided by the tea master, you’ll be invited to uncover the hidden stories within each cup, while slowly settling into the moment. Paired with traditional seasonal 'tea snacks', the experience unfolds gently through taste, aroma, and atmosphere. As the ceremony comes to a close, you’ll be guided to translate your impressions into ink, creating a piece of traditional calligraphy. This quiet, reflective moment becomes a personal keepsake — a poetic reminder of your time with tea.

Interesting and calming

A great way to learn about Korean tea culture, history, and calligraphy. I learned about the types of tea. The entire ceremony had a calming effect on me, almost meditative. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the beautiful city of Busan.

Lovely mix of art and culture

Lovely experience with Min. I learned the traditional way tea is prepared following both Korean and Chinese etiquette. I also practiced calligraphy which was easier than I thought it would be. Still need lots of practice but not hard to learn.

A must-do if visiting Busan

The highlight of our trip to Busan! The tea ceremony was a very personal experience as we ended up being a group of 3. Our host, Min, was very poised and brilliant at answering all our questions and providing us insights into the tea itself as well as the etiquette and history that comes with a tea ceremony. Being able to do the calligraphy at the end was the cherry on top and extremely fun especially after the calming experience of the tea ceremony.

Peaceful Morning Activity

Ms. Min is the owner of Daman Teahouse and she is very knowledgeable about Korean and Chinese ceremonial tea practices! She answered all of my questions and was very patient as I practiced the correct way to pour tea. This experience has inspired me to look more into the history of tea and to learn about different properties of tea. I also appreciated the calligraphy session after the tea ceremony. Thank you Ms. Min!

A real and amazing taste experience in busan

The best experience we have had in busan. The host is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. You will walk out knowing more, with great teas being tasted and an amazing calligraphy momento. An amazing place and event to find Rest and kindness. It is centered around slow and deliberate sensation for 1 to 4 people in about 2-2.5h. Maybe not for small kids.
