Step into a 100-year-old traditional townhouse, where the scent of tatami and a calm atmosphere invite you to slow down. Guided by a host trained in the Omotesenke tradition—one of Japan’s most respected tea ceremony schools—you’ll learn the graceful and mindful art of preparing matcha.


With gentle and entertaining guidance, you’ll make your own bowl of matcha, discovering the techniques and etiquette that transform tea-making into a peaceful ritual. Enjoy your matcha with a traditional sweet and take time to savor the moment.


Our English-speaking tea masters welcome questions and conversation, helping you connect more deeply with Japanese culture. Using authentic, handcrafted utensils by skilled artisans, we share an experience rooted in tradition—one to remember and take home in spirit.

Itinerary

  • aeru gojo

    Start your experience by entering a charming Kyoto townhouse built over 100 years ago, where the quiet atmosphere invites you to slow down. You will be guided onto the tatami, a traditional space that has been part of Japanese daily life for centuries. Become familiar with the world of the tea ceremony as our English-speaking host introduces its purpose and spirit in a clear, beginner-friendly way. You will watch a traditional demonstration of matcha preparation, observing how each movement is performed with care and intention. Afterward, you will prepare your own bowl of matcha and enjoy a quiet, meditative moment, allowing yourself to fully immerse in the essence of Japanese tradition. Throughout the ceremony, every utensil you use is a finely made, handcrafted piece created by skilled artisans, carrying the depth and beauty of Japanese culture. Our company was founded on a deep respect for traditional artisanship and the belief that these works can remind us of kindness and mindfulness. We are honored to share these artworks with you and your loved ones as a meaningful memory of Japanese culture.
