The moment the tea is poured, its aroma rising with the steam, stimulates the senses, inviting one into a peaceful time away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Carefully crafted matcha, served with seasonal wagashi, reflects the changes of the seasons and is truly an irreplaceable work of art.
