Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • Experience Program You will experience the art of Kodo, one of Japan's most representative performing arts. 1. You will be served a welcome drink of medicinal tea, a blend of fragrant ingredients. 2. You will sit in a chair at Noir Cafe, an adjoining flower shop run by a top Japanese flower artist, and experience the experience. You will receive a brief explanation of Kodo. 3. We will light the representative fragrant woods, aloeswood, and sandalwood, and you will be able to smell them. Afterwards, you will listen to the incense of the Kodo and try to identify the scent. 4. After the incense smelling session, you will be served matcha green tea and sweets.
  • What is Kodo? Let's take a look at this traditional Japanese art!
  • There are fewer opportunities to experience Kodo than there are with tea or flower arrangements, so many people may wonder what it is all about. In addition to explaining Kodo, you will also get to experience the essence of Kodo by actually listening to the scents and identifying the scents.
  • Don't worry if you're not good at sitting upright! You can enjoy the experience in a private space at the cafe.
  • Even those who feel that traditional performing arts are intimidating or who are not good at sitting upright can enjoy this experience. You can enjoy it exclusively in the chairs of our hidden cafe.
  • A cultural experience plan you can do at night!
  • Kyoto is a city overflowing with traditional culture. Visitors to Kyoto will likely plan their trip to enjoy the city to the fullest, with temples, shrines, scenic spots, shopping, and gourmet food. Kyoto's streets, which are bustling during the day, become quiet after 5pm when the temples and shrines close. In the quiet of Kyoto at night, experience the traditional Japanese culture of "Kodo" (the art of incense), including tea ceremony and incense listening, and be transported to a world of Japanese fragrances. Why not immerse yourself in Japanese culture during a Kyoto evening?
