Itinerary

Experience Nara-Grown Teas Taste five carefully selected Nara teas in a 120-year-old Japanese house. Enjoy cold-brewed and teapot-prepared teas, tailored to each flavor. Get personalized tips from the host to recreate the experience at home. Some teas are aromatic, such as matcha, while others are easy to drink with roasted tea leaves. By tasting five different kinds of Japanese teas, you will be able to find the one you like best. The tea is then served by the master in a way that brings out the best flavor of the tea leaves. For accompaniments, we serve traditional Japanese sweets. Time in a traditional Japanese house surrounded by silence makes you forget time. The master has experience in rickshaw rides in Kyoto, He will be able to give you recommendations on places to see other than deer in Nara Park, Kyoto, Osaka, or your entire trip to Japan. Everything in our restaurant is made in Nara, from the serving utensils, trays, tea leaves, sweets, and furnishings. In particular, we use traditional crafts that have been handed down for hundreds of years, such as tea leaves, tea utensils, trays, and furnishings. Come and experience the culture.
