Uma autêntica experiência de cerimônia do chá por um renomado mestre de chá perto de templos famosos em Kyoto.

Fue una experiencia muy agradable, con un té excelente y mucho aprendizaje sobre la ceremonia del té, sus rituales y su significado. Un gran anfitrión, un verdadero maestro del té. No se lo pierdan.

This was a great experience and super informative. Uji is about 35-45 minutes from Kyoto. A couple of things to note are that you meet in the parking lot 5 minutes before the start time, so don't be late. Second, you need to pay an additional 1000 yen per person, which is buried in the Klook information. Third, the tea master is just that: a master. So be respectful and listen to him.

Desde el momento en que llegamos, el entorno era simplemente hermoso. El ambiente era tranquilo y nos sentimos bienvenidos de inmediato. Nos encantó aprender sobre la rica historia detrás de la ceremonia del té. Nuestro maestro de té tenía muchos conocimientos y nos guio en cada paso, mostrándonos exactamente cómo servir y beber el té correctamente. ¡Fue una experiencia tan memorable!

They should have been better prepared and not waited until the last day of our tour.

TEN STARS!!! My husband and I recently had the privilege of attending a master tea ceremony workshop led by an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate teacher, and I cannot recommend this experience highly enough! From the moment we stepped into the serene space, we were transported into the beautiful world of Japanese culture and tradition. Our teacher began with a captivating introduction to the history of the tea ceremony, sharing anecdotes that brought to life the rich tapestry of Japanese culture. The way he articulated the significance of each step in the ceremony truly deepened our appreciation for this ancient art form. It was not just a lesson in making tea; it was an exploration of mindfulness, respect, and harmony—core values that resonate through Japanese society. The highlight of the workshop was undoubtedly the hands-on experience with Uji-matcha tea accompanied with knowledge and stories from our master teacher. Under his expert guidance, we learned the precise techniques for preparing matcha, from the careful whisking to the proper presentation of tea. My husband and I were encouraged to embrace the ritual, and we found ourselves immersed in the experience, appreciating the flavors, aromas, and the calming atmosphere that surrounded us. By the end of the workshop, we left not only with new skills but also a deeper connection to Japanese culture and an appreciation for the tea ceremony as an expression of tranquility and reflection. I wholeheartedly believe that anyone interested in Japanese culture, art, or simply seeking a peaceful experience should attend this master tea ceremony. It is an unforgettable journey that enriches the soul and invites one to slow down and savor the moment. Thank you to our wonderful master teacher for this invaluable experience! Your passion and expertise have left a lasting impact on us and we will always come back to visit whenever in Japan.

I ended up being the only person booked onto this so had a private lesson. The ceremony teacher had a great knowledge and was very passionate about his profession. He was translating to English and I understood everything. Highly recommended.

It was such an amazing experience to learn how a traditional tea ceremony is performed. I was lucky enough to have a private session as no one else showed up. It was such a good time and would recommend to anyone visiting Kyoto.

We booked only a few days before attending, and they were able to accommodate our kimono rental request very quickly! The tea master was very knowledgeable, had great English, and showed us a traditional tea ceremony where we all got to participate in making the tea, drinking it, and eating a sweet. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to experience a truly traditional and unique experience in Kyoto. Thank you for welcoming us into the temple.

The Way of Tea is also about the appreciation of one's state of mind and the artistic conception. Through the detailed explanations and demonstrations by the master, travelers from different countries can participate and share together. In addition to matcha tea, wagashi (Japanese confections) are also served, making for an interesting and flavorful intellectual experience.
