Authentic private tea ceremony experience at chanoyu the Kyoto in Uzumasa

This is a private tea room nestled in the residential area of Uzumasa, Kyoto. Featuring a tea garden at the front, it allows you to experience the spiritual world of authentic tea ceremony. First, please put on a haori (Japanese half-coat), as we begin with an introduction to the tea garden. Walking through the garden into the 4.5-tatami-sized tea room feels like entering another dimension. Listen to the sound of boiling water in the iron kettle within the serene tea space. After observing the host's tea preparation techniques, you'll have the opportunity to whisk matcha yourself. We'll serve you premium Japanese sweets and top-grade matcha. Through explanations about tea utensils and the history of tea ceremony, you'll deeply engage with Japanese culture, spending a truly exquisite moment.
