Tokyo
This page collects Tokyo’s most welcoming tea ceremonies, from formal kimono affairs to casual whisk-your-own matcha lessons. Nobody expects you to know the choreography; hosts guide first-timers through every gesture. One custom worth remembering: finish the sweet before you drink, so the matcha’s bitterness lands the way it should.
Only a true matcha lover can uncover the secrets of traditional Japanese tea preparation at Matcha Making Tokyo's immersive experience in the heart of Asakusa.
