Description
You make two kinds of mochi with your own hands - matcha mochi and a seasonal fruit daifuku - rather than watching a demonstration, then taste Japanese green tea and roasted hojicha side by side with a guide who explains why certain teas suit certain sweets. Groups are capped at 10 and led entirely in English, so beginners get real attention. Recipes are gluten-free and vegan-friendly, and you take home what you make in a box.
