    Not just about tea ceremony, but we also step into the agricultural value and the health benefits of matcha from a scientific viewpoint!

    Savor our exclusive first flush matcha(which means the highest quality!), carefully selected from our 100+ matcha collection from all over Japan!
    Let's find out your favorite matcha using your eyes, nose and tongue from our matcha collection
    We also cover the differences between Japanese and overseas matcha (they are VERY different!)

    Before the lecture starts, you can wear your favorite easy-to-wear kimono(Japanese traditional clothes).
    Not like other normal kimono(which takes about 30 mins to put it on), it is specially designed to wear easily and quickly.

    In the lecture, let's learn about the difference of teas(green, black and Chinese etc.) and the important philosophy of “Teaism” and “Tea ceremony”.

    After that, let's experience how to prepare a beautiful bowl of matcha using tea tools.
    You can also learn the basic manner of how to drink a bowl of matcha too.

    Let's become a matcha expert through this lecture and experience!
