From ¥9,900 p.p. (min. 2) | Same-day OK — book up to 2 hours before. Fully private, no strangers, just your group. A 19-year tea master guides you through authentic Enshu-ryū ceremony in a 100-year-old machiya in Kanazawa’s Nishi Chaya geisha district.

Step inside a 100-year-old machiya in Kanazawa’s Nishi Chaya geisha district for a completely private tea ceremony. Your host Yuta has practiced tea for 19 years in the Enshu-ryū tradition, rooted in samurai culture. This is not a group workshop — it is an intimate ceremony performed exclusively for you, in a tea room with tatami and tokonoma alcove.

During the 70-minute session, you will:

· Watch a full tea ceremony demonstration

· Whisk your own bowl of matcha.

· Enjoy traditional dry sweets (higashi)

· Ask anything — about tea, aesthetics, or Kanazawa

· Take a commemorative photo

Completely private. No other guests. No rush. English-guided throughout.

Please note:

· Socks recommended

· Additional guests: ¥9,900/person (max 5)

We had the great honor of attending Yuta-san’s tea ceremony. After the ceremony, we felt deeply grateful and truly moved by the experience. It gave us a glimpse into the depth and long tradition of the Japanese tea ceremony. It was much more than just an activity. It felt like an encounter with a culture shaped by mindfulness, respect, and harmony. What impressed us most was the authenticity. Being welcomed into Yuta-san’s home created a very special and intimate atmosphere. From the very beginning, we felt surrounded by a deep sense of respect. The ceremony was carried out with great care, precision, and mastery. Although we are not experts, it was clear how much dedication and attention to detail was present in every movement. Afterwards, we felt a deep sense of calm and inner peace. It was as if we had been gently guided toward a quieter state of mind. The exchange with Yuta-san was very warm and kind. This experience will remain in our hearts for a lifetime. We are truly grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend it.

If you are ever in Kanazawa and in search of an authentic and personal tea experience away from the tourist hotspots, this is the place. Yutasan invites you into his house and personal tea space and serves not only the greatest matcha but also great seasonal sweets. As a tea ceremony practitioner of over a decade he is very knowledgeable and answers all questions regarding the practice, Kanazawa and more with great enthusiasm.
