Share in the ritual of tea ceremony with DM teahouse. Your host, artist and naturopath Dhana Merritt encourages you to become present and enjoyably consider your cup of intentional tea. In response to Nocturne, experience butterfly pea, passionflower and lavender tea over a communal table as night-time falls.
