Private Tea Ceremony

With a Tea Master

Tea ceremony is not a performance. It is, at its core, a practice of presence — of giving your full attention to a single moment. In a private machiya away from the tourist circuit, a tea master with decades of experience will guide you through this quietly transformative ritual.

  • Guided by a practising tea master with 20+ years of experience
  • Seasonal wagashi sweets crafted by a local confectioner
