In our country, Japan, there is the word "Omotenashi".

Omotenashi is the spirit of welcoming guests.

It is said that the idea of "Omotenashi" originally spread with the culture of “ Sado” (Japanese tea ceremony).

Omotenashi involves treating guests with respect and ensuring that they have a comfortable and joyful experience. In this column, we will explore methods of hospitality for holiday parties using hand towels, blending traditional Japanese values with a modern touch.
