🌿 What You’ll Experience
• Ceremonial Matcha Demonstration & Tasting
Learn how authentic Japanese matcha is prepared, whisked, and enjoyed in traditional tea ceremonies.
• The Meaning of Matcha Ceramics
Discover why the chawan (matcha bowl) and accompanying tea ware are essential elements of the ceremony — from symbolism and seasonal variations to how shape and texture influence the ritual.
• Guided Clay & Decorating Inspiration
Design and create a complete Matcha Tea Set, including:
Matcha bowl (chawan)
Tea cup
Whisk holder
Scoop holder
Explore traditional motifs, seasonal themes, and wabi-sabi aesthetics while expressing your own creativity.
• What You’ll Take Home
After firing, your custom pieces become meaningful keepsakes for your own matcha rituals at home. Each participant will also receive a matcha whisk to complete their set.
