It was really nice insight into the traditional tea ceremony. We were preparing our own tea and I learned a lot about tradition over the tea drinking.

Our tea hostess gave such a beautiful explanation of the ceremony and we are so glad to have experienced the history and to now know how to properly make a dose of matcha!

This was a very memorable experience. Our guide for the tea ceremony was very friendly and charming. She spoke English very well and took the time to answer all of our silly questions. Her respect for and knowledge of the ceremony was very admirable. We had a great time learning about this important tradition.

A very memorable experience. A small group attended by a knowledgable host. Lots of information given before the tea ceremony itself. Amazing value for money, highly recommended.

This is a beautiful introduction to the Japanese Tea Ceremony in a tranquil setting. You're given an explanation of the tea ceremony history and ritual, and then a demonstration of the ceremony by one of the staff. Each guest then gets a chance to make a bowl of matcha tea on their own. The staff were very welcoming and helpful, and fully Japanese/English bilingual. The business is on the heart of the Gion District and very easy to find.
