Highly recommend this unique spring experience! Whisking matcha under cherry blossoms was unforgettable. The seasonal sweets were delicious, and the atmosphere was so peaceful. A must-try if you’re in Tokyo during sakura season!

We had a lovely time. Our host was very knowledgeable on the history of the traditional tea ceremony, she was patient and kind while teaching us how to make traditional Japanese tea sweets, and even let us try our hand at making and serving matcha and the importance of how to serve. It was an unforgettable experience.

We went to Yuka an for a wagashi making class with Atsuko. She was such a good teacher that our sweets actually looked pretty close to her beautiful examples! We then took part in a tea ceremony and were delighted to be able to choose our bowls from the excellent collection of antique tea bowls they have, including learning about the history of each one. We would definitely recommend Yuka an to anyone looking for a tea ceremony or wagashi making experience. It was the last thing we did before flying home and was a perfect end to our holiday in Japan.
