Yoshitsugu Nagano
 Japanese Tea Ritual Master

The world of tea ceremony is deep and full of various pleasures. Not only do we enjoy drinking matcha together, but we also appreciate flowers and incense as part of the experience.

Although it is not practiced much anymore, there is a ritual in the world of the tea ceremony called Kōshomō (香所望). In this ceremony, incense burned by a first guest is passed around and enjoyed by all participants. After the incense has calmed the mind, a cup of matcha tea becomes even more special.

We will be offering two types of incense, along with a seasonal kaiseki meal specially prepared for the occasion.

We look forward to your participation!
