[Private] Matcha Tasting Game & Tea Ceremony

Join us for a personal, intimate tea ceremony with a traditional, fun matcha tasting game!

We’re confident in our English communication and are committed to providing you with care and understanding throughout your experience.


Yuta Takahashi is a tea master, born and raised in Kanazawa. 

With nearly two decades of experience in the world of tea ceremony and a passion for sharing the joy

of this traditional culture, he invites you to step inside his home near the Nishi Chaya District. 

There, you can immerse yourself in the aroma of matcha in his tearoom.


During this private experience, you will not only witness a graceful tea ceremony performance by Yuta Takahashi

but also enjoy three varieties of matcha, including one of the finest, presented in a fun, traditional-game style. 

If you think matcha is a bitter drink, join us, and you’ll be surprised to discover the real taste of matcha

—creamy with a subtle sweetness!


This experience is perfect for anyone seeking an intimate atmosphere, a chance to enjoy conversations with locals, 

learn the historical and cultural background of the tea ceremony, and explore the different tastes and aromas of matcha.


An English-interpreter is included in the fee.


If your schedule allows, we will be able to offer a guided walk in the area of Nishi Chaya District before heading to the tea master's residence.
No additional fee applied.
