Experience program You can experience Kodo, one of the representative arts of Japan. 1. A medicinal tea blended with fragrant ingredients will be served as a welcome drink. 2. Choose your favorite flowers at Noir Cafe, which has a flower shop run by a top Japanese flower artist. Let's put flowers in the incense seat while receiving instructions (flowers and containers can be taken home). 3. Make an ash mold for the incense burner. (The customer makes an ash mold, puts charcoal in it, and burns the incense.) We listen to the typical incense woods, Kyara, Agarwood, and Sandalwood. Four. Make matcha. (I will tell you how to make delicious matcha, so please enjoy it with the tea and sweets that you have made yourself.)
