The experience

Matcha Workshop London: Japanese Tea Ceremony & Mindful Tea Experience

Join a unique matcha workshop in London, designed to introduce you to the beauty of Japanese tea rituals through a contemporary, sensory experience. This immersive tea workshop blends the traditional Japanese tea ceremony (chanoyu), mindful matcha preparation, and modern tea tasting — all within a calm and welcoming London setting.

You'll begin with a short sensory grounding exercise, then take part in a guided ceremony where you observe, taste, and learn the cultural significance of matcha. Guided step-by-step, you'll prepare your own bowl using premium Uji matcha and a traditional bamboo whisk (chasen).

Afterwards, enjoy a seasonal matcha creation — warm or iced — alongside a comforting hojicha latte, each paired with a seasonal wagashi. Educational and restorative, you'll leave with practical skills, cultural insight, and a deeper appreciation for Japanese tea.

Looking for the perfect gift? Now you've found it.
