You will gain a foundation based not only on technique, but on knowledge as well. Focus will not be on traditional methods, but on food service fundamentals we have learned supporting a myriad of cafes and restaurants. This is a method that transposes the act of maccha creation into a more casual environment, with a goal of maintaining the tea’s integrity. You will take part in a session that covers:

– Maccha: topics include what maccha is, its health benefits, history, source, labour conditions, cultural significance, how to take care of it, and repercussions if you don’t.
– Maccha tools: topics include what maccha tools are, their purpose, their history, how to look after them, and repercussions if you don’t.
– Tasting: explores the difference between different grades of maccha.
– Preparation: Focuses on the preparation method of a complete maccha menu
