In this peaceful maritime setting, you are invited to slow down and immerse yourself in the calming rituals of Japanese tea culture, led by Urasenke Tea Master Mio Shudo. Dressed in her ceremonial kimono, Mio will share the graceful art of the traditional tea ceremony, offering insight into its centuries-old philosophy and gentle precision.
As you sip on a handpicked selection of aromatic teas, Fingal’s chefs will serve a Japanese-inspired afternoon tea menu, thoughtfully crafted to complement each brew.
It’s a tranquil blend of culture, flavour, and elegance – an afternoon to savour, reflect, and remember.
Fingal is located on the Shore at Leith. Travel there with Lothian Buses number 16 bus from the city centre, or with Edinburgh Trams, alighting at the stop Port of Leith where Fingal Hotel is only a 2 minute walk away.
The Art of Japanese Tea With Mio Shudo takes place on 01 November 2025. Tickets, which are £80.00 per person can be booked by calling Fingal on 0131 357 5000 (Monday to Friday) or emailing events@fingal.co.uk
