Great experience

5.00Beautiful traditional experience and great tea! One of the hosts spoke beautiful English and explained everything to us so we understood. Was special to partake in the ceremony and then make our own! Our kids enjoyed it, as well - and when they did not like the sweet they provided, the host brought them Oreos!
Relaxing moment with the experience

4.00Very educational. Enjoyed learning and partaking in the traditional process. Please note that if you are looking for the full experience by dressing in a kimono, that did not happen. No photos allowed where the tea ceremony takes place. This may change as they gain popularity. I appreciated not having to search for quality matcha in the city since a well-known brand was available for purchase at the end of the experience.
Nice but negligible experience

2.00The experience is overall cute but disproportionate to the cost required. Our guest conducted the ceremony with grace and courtesy but everything was rather cold and cumbersome, perhaps also because of the location. I would have expected something more engaging, also in relation to the prices found online than other subjects who propose the same ceremony without the rental of kimonos.
Excellent Tea Ceremony Experience 🍵
