A tea host or hostess spends many years mastering procedures for a tea ceremony, as well as art, poetry, calligraphy and flower arranging. You will have a narrator who will explain the ceremony to you, and there will be an opportunity to ask questions. If you are unfamiliar with the tea ceremony, it can be a bit intimidating!
