Tea Ceremony

Japanese traditional tea ceremony is a way to show how much the host welcomes the guests and to serve a bowl of tea for them. At the tea ceremony, guests and the host share precious time and care for each other with respect.

You will enjoy a quiet, meditative time with the sound of boiling water and making tea.

We hope you enjoy the tea ceremony.

Matcha tea powder is finely ground green tea. Its aroma and taste are so delicate.
