Discover the harmony of Japanese tea and soba culture in this exclusive hands-on workshop led by a Japanese Soba Master who has taught the art of soba-making to over 1,000 people.

First, watch a demonstration and then make your own soba noodles using a premium blend of buckwheat flour and Uji matcha.

Enjoy your freshly made soba with a traditional dipping sauce and a special matcha salt, uniquely developed to enhance the flavor of matcha soba – something you cannot taste anywhere else. You will also whisk your own matcha drink with a chasen (茶筅) and finish with a matcha soba mochi, where you sprinkle kuromitsu and kinako by yourself for a fun and interactive touch.

This program is created under the motto of “Culture × Wellness × Experience” offering not just a cooking class but a cultural journey that nourishes both body and soul.
