This was one of our favourite experiences from our entire Japan trip! We were very impressed with how much was included as we got to wear a kimono, enjoy a delicious meal, learn to make matcha and have a tour of the gardens. The member of staff who spent the afternoon with us, Mayuko, was very friendly and knowledgable. Thank you Mayuko for such a lovely afternoon :)

After another party was a no show, we were the only two at the hour long meeting going over how to make and drink matcha tea in the traditional Japanese style. Our host was excellent and patient, and she even took extra time to serve us in a tatami room as well as show us other areas of the property. We were given sweet treats as a parting gift.

Vegan Delicacies to Complement Your Tea

During a vegan tea ceremony, the attention to detail extends beyond just the tea. Participants are treated to an assortment of vegan-friendly delicacies that are thoughtfully prepared to accompany the tea being served.

The focus is on using natural, plant-based ingredients that align with vegan principles, ensuring that every bite is as respectful of the environment as it is delicious. This harmonious blend of flavors and carefully selected ingredients ensures that each tea ceremony is not only a sensory delight but also a lesson in mindful and sustainable living.
