日本茶 茶道

Had a great time with Emi-San and Jun-san who were patient, kind and enthusiastic hosts. This class is unique with the combination of mocktails and mochi character making. And it was basically private as there were only the two of us that I booked for. The characters were soo cute and surprisingly easy to make! They will for sure become a fun staple snack for me as someone who has trouble with gluten. Making the three mocktails instead of two was definitely worth it for the variation in flavours and possible alcoholic combinations (if that’s your speed). Super happy with this experience overall!

a fun group of women run this presentation. we enjoyed learning about the tea ceremony and how to make matcha tea. about half of the guests opted to wear traditional kimonos. very beautiful. location was easy to find in a quite part of the city.

We were warmly welcomed by Keiko and seated in a room looking out onto a beautiful garden. She led us through the process of making sweets with red bean paste centers. We silently watched her perform the tea ceremony and enjoyed the matcha tea she made. We then had the opportunity to try tea making ourselves. We appreciated Keiko’s kindness and the history of the traditional Japanese tea ceremony.

The hostesses performing the tea ceremony were excellent - very engaged and good instructors when we had the make the tea ourselves. The calligraphy option was a bonus. However, it did feel very crowded in the house and it seemed that those who chose to rent a kimono and sat apart from those who didn’t, had a different experience. It might be good to have the people who rent kimonos for the tea ceremony to have their own ceremony.

This was such an amazing experience! If you’re into cooking, Japanese sweets, or are just looking for something fun and unique to do while you’re in Japan I’d definitely recommend booking this tea lesson with Emi. My mom and I booked a private lesson for a small extra charge, and I definitely think it was worth it. This experience is something I’ll be recommending to all family and friends who visit Tokyo.

Oh my goodness was this a gift of an experience. Lovely ladies showing us how the tea ceremony has evolved and become such a beautiful ritual. Loved it and enjoyed this whole experience. Thank you.

The whole experience and hospitality was simply amazing. We got great kimonos, wonderful eats in the beginning, a slide show explaining the rituals of tea - followed by tea making . Each of us then got to choose from various activities like calligraphy, matcha making and miniature zen garden model making

Very good experience. Learnt a lot about tea ceremony

It was a wonderful and fulfilling experience! The house in which the tea ceremony took place was quaint and lovely as were the ladies who guided us through each step of the beautiful process. From the tea to flower arrangement to calligraphy, each step was taken with such respect and care. The experience was one of the most wholesome experiences I have had in my travels. My friend and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys learning about history, culture and matcha!

We absolutely loved this experience. All three of us (my friend and daughter (adult-age) loved everything about it, the setting, the making of the sweets and tea, the sharing of information/history—most of all, we were so touched by the kind attention given to us by our wonderful teachers: Emiko, Junko, and Ayaka. We felt that they put so much effort preparing and during the session to ensure that we had this lovely time. We would highly recommend it!

It was a very interesting experience, and the hosts were very good.

What a joy it was to experience the Cute Character Sweets & Tea Mixology Workshop! We were a family of (4), and Emi and her teaching team greeted us with such a warm welcome. The workshop was beautifully decorated with traditional style items that added extra to the whole experience. We had so much fun cooking and creating the dumpling characters with shapes, sizes, colors and details (delicious). Then we had a lesson on how to make the most beautiful drinks, one with cherry blossoms and one with black tea and maple syrup - both were too lovely to drink... but we drank both and what delightful tastes - simply delicious. Emi and her team were the utmost polite ladies and had fun along with us as we moved through our lessons. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone searching for the perfect treats and tea creation experience. Best of Luck to Emi and her team on continued success with their workshops.
