About this activity
This experience is great for those who are interested in the Japanese traditional cultures and you will have an immersive cultural experience. The experience is offered by a tea master who gives more than 1000 lessons a year to local learners, and she will give you the explanations of the history and the background of the Japanese tea ceremony. You will participate in the whole tea-making procedure, not just the tea-drinking part. You can make your own bowl of tea, and can learn the tips on how to make good tea, so you can make tasty Matcha even at home! You will also have the opportunity to purchase the tea that was used at the G7 summit 2023 and the bamboo whisk on site.
What you will do
[What to Expect] Experience the heart of Japanese hospitality at an authentic tea room in Hiroshima. Unlike typical tourist demonstrations, this is a traditional space where local students practice daily. Step into a real, active atmosphere of tradition and mindfulness. [Experience Flow] Background: A brief intro to the history and spirit of the tea ceremony. Be the Guest: Observe a formal demonstration with seasonal sweets and premium Matcha. Hands-on: Learn techniques and whisk your own bowl of Matcha under professional guidance. [Why Choose Us?] The beauty of Chado lies in its details—graceful movements, seasonal flowers, traditional crafts, and artful sweets. Whether seeking aesthetics or Zen-like mindfulness, everything is prepared for an intimate, unforgettable time. [Additional Information] Conducted in English or Japanese. Etiquette explained upon request. Please note that prices may vary depending on the booking platform and method.
