Forget your troubles, Drink some Matcha!

Enjoy a cup of traditional Japanese Matcha in this wonderful tea house set within a traditional and beautiful Japanese garden.

The tea will be prepared in the Omotesenke style and served in exquisite tea bowls made by Komatsu’s very own Kutaniyaki ceramic artists (Yoshita Minori etc.)

Take the time to admire the craftmanship of the tea preparation tools and the bowls. Absorb in the wonderful garden views and traditional rooms of the house. This is a wonderful introduction into the world of Japanese tea culture and history

Don’t worry if you aren’t familiar with the concepts and procedures, our kinds guides will be on hand to assist! As this isn’t a formal tea ceremony, please feel free to dress comfortably when you come!
