WHAT TO EXPECT AT A JAPANESE TEA CEREMONY

.
Essentially, the ceremony is a performance where a host serves their guests green tea in a formal manner. The ceremony typically takes place in a traditional room, lined with tatami mats, following a rigid process of steps.
 
  • Chakai traditional ceremonies usually host about 4 or 5 guests, who are each served a teacup of thin green tea.
  • Sado more formal include the drinking of thick green tea, which is drank from a bowl shared by guests.

SORATE MATCHA AND GREEN TEA

◊ Along with the role of host there is the shokyaku, the main guest who is responsible for interacting with the teishu or host.

 

◊ Bow once after the tea is served, again just before drinking the tea and again after putting the empty cup down.

 

◊ Try to drink the tea in only two or three sips, ensuring that any patterns on the cup are facing away from you.

 

◊ Be sure to wear white socks on the day as you will need to remove your shoes upon entering and try to avoid tight or revealing clothing for this traditional experience.

KŪSUI MATCHA 空翠 - 40gr
Emiko` Shirakawa
Fantastic!

I love Kusui Matcha so much. This is clean and real taste of Matcha.
I feel so great the result in the tea bowl, which is bright beautiful green color and figure every time.

MATCHA SUPERIOR - 40gr
Doorba Krishnaiyer
Consistently excellent product

As a lover of pure matcha (not the lattes and derivatives) for many years I have sampled many brands and found Sorate to be a consistently superior product.
I have a 3 weekly subscription which always arrives on time. I carry with me on vacations. Love it.
