What you can expect

  • In this experience, you can leisurely savour Kyoto’s unique “evening-only” culture in Kyoto.
    After check-in, we’ll provide an easy-to-understand explanation of the history of Japanese mochi pounding and the tea ceremony.
    Next, you’ll have the chance to try your hand at authentic mochi pounding using a traditional mortar and pestle.
    The mochi pounded with the pestle is cooked on the spot, so you can enjoy its warm, freshly made flavour.
    You will also participate in a matcha tea ceremony using authentic tea ceremony utensils.
    We will provide a detailed explanation of traditional tools such as the chasen (tea whisk), chashaku (tea scoop), and teapot—items you rarely have the chance to handle in everyday life.
    At the end of the experience, we will take a group photo, and the owner will present you with a special souvenir.

    We are dedicated to providing a cultural experience that will become one of the most special memories of your trip to Japan.
