Our Tea master Kiyoka was friendly and explained tea ceremony as part of japanese culture very well. It was zen like and we also get to make our own match tea which is very unique about this experience. Definitely must do in kyoto. Match tea quality and dessert are good quality and tasty

The host was nice and sympathetic, we expected more information about Matcha in general and more details about tea-ceremony in past and present.
