What to expect
This is not just a matcha experience. In this tea ceremony, you will discover the meaning and philosophy behind each movement—rooted in mindfulness, respect, and Japanese tradition. Rather than simply learning how to prepare matcha, this experience focuses on why each gesture matters,and the intention behind it.
