  • Enjoy a calm and intimate introduction to Japanese tea culture through seasonal wagashi making and an Omotesenke-style tea ceremony in a small, semi-private setting. In this 60-minute experience, you will first make a simple seasonal wagashi while learning about its connection to nature and the changing seasons. Afterward, you will take part in an Omotesenke-style tea gathering, where you can practice basic guest movements such as entering the tea room and receiving tea. You will enjoy two bowls of thin tea (usucha) prepared by the host in a quiet, traditional tea room. This experience is designed for beginners and those returning to tea, with a gentle, hands-on approach rather than lectures. The group size is limited to a maximum of four guests, creating a semi-private and relaxed atmosphere where each guest can fully enjoy the experience. ________________________________________ Additional Information • Maximum guests: 4 (semi-private experience) • Children below elementary school age are not allowed to participate or attend • What to bring: White socks • Dress code: Western-style clothing is acceptable (mini-skirts and low-cut tops are not allowed)
