Your English-speaking host is trained in one of Japan’s most respected schools of tea ceremony, known as Omotesenke, and will introduce you to the authentic and meditational way of preparing and enjoying matcha.
Relax on the tatami and watch your host prepare matcha. Each simple movement carries meaning and thoughtful intent, inviting you to look a little deeper into the spirit of Japanese tea culture.
Questions and conversation are always welcome. Together with guests from around the world, you’ll share a once-in-a-lifetime moment, exchanging perspectives over a bowl of tea.
With gentle guidance, whisk your own matcha and experience the calm, mindful rhythm of the tea ceremony. Using authentic utensils handcrafted by skilled Japanese artisans, enjoy the feeling of preparing a bowl with your own hands. Then savor your matcha with a traditional sweet, taking time to appreciate the quiet moment you have created.
After the ceremony, you can explore select handcrafted pieces to take home. These carefully crafted items can be a vessel to carry the respect and calmness of the tea ceremony into your daily life.
