Born in 16th century Japan, Raku refers to a particular high- temperature pottery process (Raku-yaki) and its hand-kneaded product: Raku Chawan, or Raku teabowl, specially designed and used for the Chanoyu, translated in the West as “tea ceremony”.

As part of this experience guests are welcomed by a Raku master and will embark on an unforgettable journey into the world of Raku and Chanoyu tea practice, allowing them to experience how the legacy of Sen No Rikyu is preserved today in its original simplicity.
