Panoramica
Hosted by a Kyoto local from a kimono family, this is not a demonstration, but a quiet and personal cultural experience.
Inside a real tea room, you will observe the careful preparation of matcha and learn the meaning behind each movement, tool, and gesture. Every element reflects centuries of tradition and the intention to create harmony between host and guest.
You will be welcomed as a guest and served matcha and traditional Japanese sweets, allowing you to experience the atmosphere of a genuine tea gathering.
This fully private experience offers a rare opportunity to step away from the crowds and encounter the living culture of Kyoto in an intimate and meaningful way.

Purificare le mani e lo spirito al bacino di pietra tsukubai. Entra nella sala da tè attraverso il nijiriguchi, esprimendo umiltà mentre entri. Osserva una dimostrazione tradizionale di preparazione del matcha, notando i suoni sottili, i movimenti e l'atmosfera che definiscono la cerimonia del tè. Godetevi una ciotola di matcha appena sbattuto accompagnato da due tipi di dolci giapponesi: un dolce tradizionale giapponese fresco (omogashi) e delicati dolci secchi (higashi). Partecipa a un'esperienza pratica di matcha-whisking, preparando la tua ciotola di tè sotto una guida gentile. Trascorri un momento tranquillo nella conversazione culturale e nella riflessione personale, lasciando spazio alle domande e alla comprensione più profonda. Successivamente, fate una passeggiata guidata attraverso la tradizionale casa giapponese della nostra famiglia, modellata dalla raffinata sensibilità estetica e dall’attenzione ai dettagli di mio nonno. Al termine dell’esperienza, riceverete un piccolo regalo di cuore da portare a casa come ricordo del vostro tempo in sala da tè.

Recensioni dei viaggiatori
Experience the Yabuuchi-ryu style tea ceremony, where the movements are reminiscent of a samurai! We want you to experience not only the matcha, but also everything about the tranquil and calming tea room. The hanging scroll, the flower arrangement—everything has meaning.
My wife and I booked a tea ceremony with Ryo, and it was phenomenal. Ryo explained the history, techniques, and meaning behind each part of the ceremony, and executed everything flawlessly. Learning that the practice is rooted in samurai traditions made the experience even more unique and insightful. The matcha was incredible, and we even got the chance to make it ourselves. It was easily the best matcha we have ever had. He patiently answered all of our questions and showed us around the home where the ceremonies take place. We also met his grandfather and visited their family kimono shop, which was amazing. Truly one of the kindest families we met in Japan, with exceptional matcha and beautiful kimonos.
Book this tea experience! We had 4 participants. It was just us and the tea master. First of all, the cab dropped us off just steps away from the tea-house. It was very easy to find. One of our friends used a rolling walker and she had no trouble at all. We descended a staircase while she went down the sloped road to the side of the steps. Ryotaro Conducted our tea ceremony. He was dressed in authentic traditional clothing. First of all he was very kind. Secondly his English is perfect! We were able to ask all sorts of questions and now we understand the Samurai tea culture. This was our final tour while in Japan. We saved the BEST for last. Also met his family and heard the story of his grandfather who built the teahouse. Beautiful experience!
from beginning to end, the matcha tea ceremony was special peaceful and informative. our host answered all of our questions and was very patient. watching all of the motions and movements of our host were so intricate and meaningful and methodical. the matcha was extremely delicious and to be able to drink it in a ceremonial setting was a profound experience. 10/10 recommend!
This is a very elegant and ancient tea ceremony. He explains every movement and apparatus. He answered all questions and was very kind and very gracious. His English is better than mine! I loved being able to have a private tea ceremony with friends. The 4 of us were able to ask all sorts of questions about the tea ceremony, Samurai culture, and his personal experience. His Grandfather built the tea house we were in. Amazing experience. Amazing family. Don’t miss this experience.
While Miyashita-san's tea ceremony is rooted in deep tradition, he is not limited by rigid schools or cultural boundaries. His openness to different cultural perspectives brings a remarkable depth to his practice. The room is softly lit to avoid straining the eyes, which enhances other senses such as hearing and taste, making the experience more immersive. You can also enjoy tea paired with seasonal Japanese sweets. It’s definitely a place I would love to visit again!
Phenomenal experience! Ryotaro was friendly and informative and made the experience even more worthwhile
Such a magical experience! I visited with a friend recently. The owner was very kind in teaching us, and they were incredibly knowledgeable about the tea ceremony. It was a fascinating experience. The matcha was delicious, and the traditional sweets (wagashi) were beautiful. If you want to understand the heart of Japanese hospitality (Omotenashi), you must try this.
