The Japanese tea ceremony is a centuries-old tradition closely tied to Zen Buddhist principles, and a popular way to experience Japanese culture. There are several variations on this ritual. At its base, powdered green tea (matcha) is prepared and served in accordance with strict rules. Oftentimes, wagashi (Japanese sweets) is served alongside the bitter green tea.
In this class you can make WAGASHI by yourself self.
WAGASHI means Japanese sweets.
You make 4 pieces WAGASHI,then 1 piece for the tea ceremony.
It takes 1〜1 hour & half.
Next I do Japanese tea ceremony demonstration.
You can look the tea ceremony procedure.
You can learn how to be a guest.
Try making matcha by yourself.
During the procedure you eat WAGASHI which you make.
I make green tea for you.
After you see the procedure,you can try to make matcha by yourself with my WAGASHI.
(I prepare WAGASHI & dried WAGASHI for you.)
So you drink 2 cup of matcha , eat 2 pieces WAGASHI, and you take 3 pieces WAGASHI to go back with you.
It takes for about 3 hours for “WAGASHI”&”Japanese tea ceremony”.
I open this class just only afternoon
