Wagashi Yiyecek Deneyimleri

We had a wonderful time at this tea ceremony, led by Hiromi Fujiwara together with Eclat, and two of her lovely colleagues. From the moment we arrived it felt personal rather than touristy. Before the ceremony, they gave us a tour of the house and shared its history, including old photos of the family who owned it and the story of their brewing heritage. It gave real context to everything that followed. The ceremony itself was beautifully done. We went through each stage: waiting, purifying ourselves much like at a Buddhist temple, and then the ceremony. We were served sake beforehand, and sweets both before and during. Hiromi and her team explained every step clearly and guided us so we could take part rather than just watch, which made it much more meaningful. Afterwards we could choose an additional activity. We all picked calligraphy, and it was a lot of fun. Throughout, there was time to chat and get to know our hosts, who were kind and welcoming. As a final touch, they gave us our calligraphy to take home, along with matcha powder in a lovely box. A thoughtful, hands-on introduction to Japanese tea culture. Highly recommended!

A wonderfully eye-opening experience from Akito, where he not only taught us about tea, from growing it all the way to preparing it, but also talked about the state and future of the tea industry in Shizuoka and Japan as a whole. Between visiting the fields, touring a rare co-op factory, and tasting a variety of teas, we were impressed not only by Akito's knowledge about tea and the local area, but also the skill with which he was able to craft the perfect cup, dialing in the temperature and infusions with just his senses. A true master! Whether you have a burgeoning curiosity about tea or already a seasoned lover, this tour is a must!

Great experience! Thanks tò our teacher Momo, she shared with us her passion about the culture of rice in Japan, and It was really interesting. Highly recommended!!🍙

Much harder than I thought it would be. Instructors were super kind and helpful. I had lots of fun. I just wish that we had more practice turns.

I really enjoyed it! It was an easy-to-make hand-rolled sushi bento. Both the side dishes and the dessert were delicious!

Had an excellent time learning how to make wagashi. Yuki was patient , informative and welcoming. Our biggest regret is not also booking her sushi roll making workshop.

Great experience, loved it

It was a delicious and enjoyable experience! It’s great to experience Japan’s rice culture, too.

Beautiful experience. Kotomi Tezuka led our group through the process in thoughtful, patient way that made our experience very pleasant. Would love to do this again.

Delightful! Everyone in my family loved making mochi with Sakura (and petting Choco at the end) and she taught us so much! It was one of our favorite activities

We had a wonderful time and experience at Sakura san’s class. The class was very well organised and structured. Our nine year old is very shy and Sakura san approached her with patience and after a while she felt comfortable. We’re so glad that we did this and recommend the class wholeheartedly. Thank you for the great time, Sakura san🌸

Yuko was a great host and taught us how to make Nerikiri in a very easy to understand manner. It was amazing that we, who had no experience in Japanese confectionery making, could make such beautiful Nerikiri!! It was a wonderful experience!! Thank you, Yuko!
