Overview

Laugh, sip tea, and experience the vibrant heart of Japanese storytelling and tea ceremony all in one cozy afternoon hosted in Japantown SF!

Tea Ceremony Experience 🍡 Kagetsu-Kai, Omote Senke Ryu

Join us to experience Japanese tea culture in a comfortable chair-seated setting. Enjoy a ceremonial matcha tea ceremony, including unique Japanese sweets.

Each session consists of a tea ceremony demonstration in the Ryurei-shiki (立瀼式), and a hands-on tea whisking experience. Ryurei-shiki translates to "Standing bow style." Unlike traditional ceremonies where guests kneel on tatami mats, this style has both host and guests seated comfortably in chairs.

This workshop is brought to you by the Japantown Cultural District Visitor Center.
