Yuzu Blessings: A Citrus Ritual for the New Year

Yuzu Blessings: A Citrus Ritual for the New Year

Rooted in the Japanese yuzu-yu tradition of bathing with yuzu on the winter solstice to invite luck, prosperity, health, and protection, this ritual reimagines the practice for a modern wellness setting.

Through scent, tea, and mindful crafting, the essence of this ancient custom is transformed into a sensorial New Year’s beginning. Enjoy a yuzu-inspired tea ceremony with wagashi, followed by a guided ritual where you will craft your own yuzu bath salts and body oil to carry the blessings into the year ahead.

Duration: Each tea experience lasts around 1 hour, giving you the perfect balance of tasting and quiet enjoyment.

Pax: The experience is priced individually. For multiple guests, please purchase the matching number of seats.
