Overview

Amid Kyoto’s quiet elegance, witness the refined beauty of the Sencha Tea Ceremony. Led by a Kyoto-based Tea Master from the West, this intimate encounter offers a gentle gateway into the world of Japanese tea. Your journey begins with a slow, attentive observation of the tea preparation. As the ceremony unfolds, you’ll be introduced to gyokuro, one of Japan’s most prized green teas. While savoring this exquisite tea alongside a seasonal sweet, you’ll gain insight into the philosophy behind the lesser-known but deeply refined practice of Sencha, and how it differs from the more widely known Matcha tradition. To conclude, enjoy thoughtful conversation with your host, ask questions, and take commemorative photos as the ceremony’s quiet elegance lingers in your memory.
