Our Japanese Tea Ceremonies are back this autumn. Our October sessions are now FULLY BOOKED, with only a few places remaining for November, so be quick to secure your place.
Discover the traditions and rituals of Japanese tea culture through a Tea Ceremony hosted in our Museum galleries.
Experience ceremonial-grade matcha, prepared for you by your host, Yukie Williams. With over a decade of experience practising sadō (茶道), the Japanese Way of Tea, Yukie draws on both her formal training and her early years in Japan.
Alongside Yukie Williams, Yukie Scott will introduce you to the Japanese Tea Ceremony, exploring its different elements and offering an insight into each step of the process.
To accompany your matcha, you will also have the opportunity to sample a traditional Japanese sweet, sourced from K. Minamoto, a Japanese bakery in London.
As part of the experience, you will receive a 3g pouch of matcha, courtesy of our partner, Comins Tea. With everything you learn during the ceremony, you can take your knowledge home and try preparing authentic matcha for yourself.
