About CAMELLIA TEAS (CTO)

Camellia Teas of Ottawa provides lessons, demonstrations, courses and more celebrating World Tea Cultures.

With a special focus on the traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony known as Chanoyu, Camellia House (a private residence, open by appointment only) and its Temae (Tea practitioners) welcome guests to experience the tranquility of this ancient practice.

The CTO practitioners follow The Way of Tea in one of our Four cha-shitsu (Tea rooms: Winter, Summer, Floating and our outdoor Tsubaki-An).

Camellia House offers Tea lessons, Private Tea Ceremony Events, demonstrations and 5 annual Open House Introductory sessions (Ochakai).

Camellia Teas of Ottawa was established in 2005 by Rebecca Lyn Cragg (nee Benoit) of Ottawa, ON, Canada. For seven years, Rebecca was trained in the Omote-Senke Way of Tea by Mrs. Eiko Kuwayama at a Zen Temple called Sango-ji in Wakayama City, Japan.
