TEA CEREMONY

You can enjoy a tea ceremony while learning the traditional etiquette of “matcha”, which goes well with Japanese sweets.

Both the host and the guests are meant to play specific roles and take certain actions, which we will learn about, creating a ritual experience.

All the manners and movements of the tea ceremony have a meaning,
and in the tea ceremony, you can touch and experience meaningful items in Japanese culture,
such as pottery, seasonal flowers, hanging scrolls, and sweets that you do not feel in everyday life.

Would you like to experience a time where your senses are sharpened with rich sensibilities
during a journey in a small village where time flows peacefully?

“Japanese Wabisabi”
culture is here to experience.
