A Tea Ceremony Workshop gift ticket makes a wonderful present for someone who is interested in green tea or matcha tea, and is curious about the art of tea. It is also an excellent way to practice meditation, a way to realise our wellbeing, and to reduce stress levels. The workshop lasts for 90 mins and has two main parts: 1. A talk by Keiko about the history of tea in Japan, and the philosophy and cultural background behind the Japanese Tea Ceremony. (Around 60 mins.) 2. The demonstration, where Keiko prepares and serves a cup of matcha tea and some sweets to each guest. Each visitor then has the chance to make their cup of matcha under the guidance of the experienced tea master. (Around 30 minutes) During the session you will enjoy some sweets and at least two different kinds of matcha tea. All of our matcha teas are directly imported from two of the most esteemed tea houses in Japan, Ippodo and Marukyu Koyamaen of Kyoto. Once you purchase the gift ticket, no physical ticket or voucher will be mailed. You will receive the gift ticket by email, including a unique code. The recipient can then choose their preferred workshop date and book their place through our website using this code. Please note that this gift ticket is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. After this period, it will expire and cannot be reissued. We are unable to extend gift tickets beyond the 12-month validity period.
