Matcha Tea Class in Asakusa with Japanese Sweets at 2-chōme-17-8 Kaminarimon

Matcha Tea Class in Asakusa with Japanese Sweets is a hands-on cultural class in the Asakusa district of Tokyo, one of the city's most historically preserved neighbourhoods. The session introduces participants to the Japanese tea ceremony tradition, covering the preparation and whisking of matcha using traditional tools.

During the class, guests learn the correct technique for sifting and whisking matcha to achieve the right consistency and flavour, and the session is paired with wagashi, traditional Japanese confectionery made to complement the bitterness of the tea. No prior experience is required. Tickets cover the full guided session, all materials, and the accompanying sweets, making it a self-contained introduction to one of the more enduring aspects of Japanese culinary culture. For more things to do in Tokyo, the Asakusa area also offers temples, craft markets, and street food within easy walking distance.
