Our tea ceremony is not only enjoyable but also a comprehensive educational experience. Our expert tea master and host, and friendly staff be demonstrating and guiding the group on how to prepare the matcha tea. Kids are sure to enjoy the hands-on experience of making their own drink!
Since matcha tea can be too strong for kids, we will provide orange juice and matcha latte options to suit their more sensitive palates.
We provide a variety of sizes and styles for kimonos, suitable for everyone in the family!
The staff will be assisting and teaching you how to properly put it on. Girls and ladies will be given a hairstyle suitable for their kimonos.
Our tea ceremonies are held in a historic machiya that has been registered as a Tangible Cultural Property, located conveniently in central Kyoto. The traditional townhouse is just a few minutes away from the Gion-Shijo train station and nearby popular destinations such as the Nishiki Market, the Kawaramachi, and the Kiyomizu Temple.
