Tea ceremony experience - A friend recommended me to come and see you! It was a tea room and tools beyond my imagination. The garden was also elaborate and it was a wonderful space! It was my first time, but it was a space where I could enjoy authentic Kyoto with easy-to-understand explanations and delicious tea being valuable matcha, and delicious sweets! It is a place that I would like to recommend not only to Japanese but also to foreigners.

Authentic tea ceremony experience like never before✨ - The tea ceremony experience in an authentic tea house, with a view of the lovely garden, was really special. The combination of top-quality matcha and beautiful traditional Japanese sweets was exquisite and hearty. They taught me how to participate in the experience, so I was able to participate with peace of mind for the first time. It was a wonderful experience to feel the depth of traditional Japanese culture.

This tea ceremony workshop was a really great experience! - **Kyoto Tea Ceremony Workshop - Unforgettable Cultural Experience** ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This tea ceremony workshop was a really great experience! Thanks to the calm atmosphere and friendly and knowledgeable instructors, it was the best opportunity to experience the charm of the tea ceremony. It was very easy to understand, with every step carefully explained, from how to make matcha to the philosophy behind it. I visited as a foreigner, but I was warmly welcomed and fully immersed in Japanese tradition. The small group size allowed me to feel a personal response, and I was deeply moved and inspired when I left. It is definitely recommended for visitors to Kyoto!

A tea ceremony experience unlike any other! I was able to experience the best matcha and sweets in a quiet and wonderful tea room for the rest of my life! I was impressed to learn the depth of Japanese culture from the very kind and polite explanation of my host!! - It was an incredible experience. I was moved to learn the depth of Japanese culture from my husband's explanation which was very kind and polite. And best of all, the matcha was delicious!! It is a delicious matcha I have never drunk before, not to mention in Kyoto, tourist destinations in Japan, and overseas. The colors, fragrances, tastes, everything is special and perfect. Compared to myself, I thought tea master's matcha was better. Next time I will practice to make it even better! The tea room and the shop were very stylish and nice! Being in a very quiet environment with very few tourists, I was able to experience it calmly and concentrated. If I get another chance, I'd like to join!
