Wagashi are the exquisite traditional sweets served alongside matcha in Japanese tea ceremonies, and in this experience you learn to make them yourself. Working in a serene tatami room in the Yanaka district, a wagashi master teaches you to shape nerikiri, delicate confections made from white bean paste and rice flour, into seasonal designs like cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, or summer flowers. The artistry required is meditative and surprisingly absorbing. After creating your sweets, a tea ceremony instructor guides you through the formal preparation and drinking of matcha, following the principles of harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. You will enjoy your handmade wagashi with the freshly whisked tea. The combination of making something beautiful with your hands and then experiencing the quiet ritual of tea creates a memory that stays with you long after you leave Tokyo.
