Tea: A Culture of Politeness and Honour

There is a quiet beauty in the way Koreans serve tea; a deliberate, graceful ritual that speaks volumes before a single word is exchanged. This April, the Korean Cultural Centre Nigeria (KCCN) 

invites you to slow down, breathe, and step into the world of Dado, the Korean way of tea.

More than just a drink, tea in Korean culture is an expression of respect, mindfulness, and deep-rooted hospitality. From the careful selection of leaves to the precise way a cup is offered with both hands, 

every gesture carries meaning. In a world that rarely pauses, Dado is an invitation to be fully present.

What to Expect:

·         Tea Preparation — Learn the traditional steps of brewing Korean tea with intention and care

·         Tea Tasting — Discover the distinct aromas and flavours of select Korean teas

·         Cultural Conversation — Explore the values of politeness, honour, and connection that underpin Korean hosting customs

·         Hosting Etiquette — Understand how Koreans use tea as a language of welcome and warmth

Whether you're a tea enthusiast, a lover of Korean culture, or simply curious about the world, this is a meaningful afternoon you won't want to miss.
