Tae was very good and delightful with our first Tea ceremony. It lasted just over an hour and we learned a lot about the culture and tea.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I am incredibly happy to hear that you enjoyed your very first tea ceremony with me. It was an absolute pleasure sharing the history and culture of Japanese tea with you. Hearing that you learned a lot and found the experience insightful truly makes my day! I hope this remains a special memory of your time in Japan. Wishing you a safe and wonderful journey ahead, and I hope to see you again someday! Warm regards, Tae
We had a very calming and really good time at the tea ceremony. We went there as a family of six and felt very welcome. The people were very nice and explained every step patiently. We recommend this Ceremony and wish everyone a great time too.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We are delighted to hear that your family of six had a calming and enjoyable time at our tea ceremony. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we are glad that our staff’s explanations helped you feel welcome and comfortable. Your recommendation means the world to us. We hope to welcome you and your family back again in the near future. Wishing you all the very best!
Our host/ tea master was such a delight. She didn’t have a translator but she was still very understandable and could answer all of our questions. It was every bit of what we were looking for. Strong matcha, cute snacks, and a history summary. We enjoyed it very much as a couple who enjoys matcha alone, without the latte part!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience, the strong matcha, and the sweets. It is our pleasure to share the history and spirit of tea in a way that feels welcoming and easy to understand. We are especially happy to know that you could enjoy it together as matcha lovers. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again in the future.
This is a wonderful experience in a tea room which is part of the Mita Kobo-ji temple. Tae san is a master of her craft and her explanations and instruction are excellent. I went with my wife and two children (early 20's) and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The ceremony is beautiful and very relaxing. Easy to get there by train and a short walk. I would recommend this as an authentic experience that you should definitely add to your Tokyo itinerary.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed the tea ceremony and found it both beautiful and relaxing. It’s great to know that our explanations and instructions helped make the experience meaningful for you. If you ever have the chance to visit again, we would love to welcome you back. Wishing you all the best!
We had a pleasant afternoon and really enjoyed this experience! The woman who host this experience (Ms Tae) is very kind. She also offered us a little visit at the temple. Place easy to be reached by public transport.
Thank you so much for experiencing the tea ceremony at TerakoyaNINJA the other day. And thank you for your lovely message. We hope to be a part of your wonderful journey. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
I sincerely appreciate your warm hospitality during our recent visit for the flower arrangement and tea ceremony. It was a delightful experience, and my friends join me in expressing our gratitude. The insights we gained about your culture were truly enlightening.
Thank you for coming to our temple the other day. We are very honored to have you come into contact with our culture and to receive such kind words. Please convey our gratitude to all of you. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
This experience was a dream come true, we enjoyed all the sweet treats and the matcha tea making and tasting. We were well looked after and our translator was brilliant linking our conversations to our host and herself making our visit very enjoyable. The ceremony was insightful, educational, fun, respectful and for me a dream come true experience. We also gotten chance to experience a room in the temple creating a moment to become one with our surroundings including being invited to burn a stick of incense before we complete our own prayers or wishes to the gods. We were given a leaflet and step by step guide so that we could learn and take our experience back home with us. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience a tea ceremony but also for anyone looking for a moment of peace and joy. Thank you to our hosts for making our time with them so special.
